The proposed amendments to the First Nations Assessment Appeal Regulations will implement efficiencies to support First Nations property taxation under the First Nations Fiscal Management Act as well as allow for greater alignment between First Nations property taxation regimes and provincial property taxation in which they are located.
Regulatory cooperation efforts (domestic and international)
The department will work with the First Nations Finance Authority, the First Nations Financial Management Board, the First Nations Tax Commission on the content of the proposed amendments.
Potential impacts on Canadians, including businesses
First Nations which have opted into and are currently taxing under the First Nations Fiscal Management Act and ratepayers, including businesses, in these communities may be impacted by the proposed amendments.

The First Nations Tax Commission will engage with stakeholders to inform them of the development of the proposed changes to the Regulations.
