Nicola Tribal Association

Nicola Tribal Association

The Nicola Tribal Association is the official name of what is also known as the Nicola Tribal Council and the Nicola Valley Tribal Council, is a First Nations Tribal Council composed of bands in the Nicola Valley, Thompson Canyon and Fraser Canyon areas of the Canadian province of British Columbia. It is one of three tribal councils of the Nlaka'pamux (Thompson) people, the other two being the Nlaka'pamux Nation Tribal Council and the Fraser Canyon Indian Administration. The Lytton First Nation and Lower Nicola Indian Band community, does not belong to any of the three Tribal Councils.

Due to Indian & Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) Cutbacks of 2009/2010 - Tribal Councils will soon be obsolete and discontinued as they are more or less service agencies to First Nations or Band Organizations. Tribal Councils are slowly seeing their Funding Allocations lowered on an annual basis. Current Indian & Northern Affairs Canada Policy is seeing that Tribal Councils are not meeting the Service Obligations and may stream line the Tribal Council Funding to First Nations, Metis, and Urban First Nation Population Centers. Current Indian and Northern Affairs Canada is revamping the Governance portion to funding Band Offices, Tribal Councils, and certain Non Profit First Nation Organizations.[1]
