The provincial government announced a $45 million investment in new funding for preserving Indigenous languages in its Budget 2025. Spread over three years, the new funding would go to the First People’s Cultural Council (FPCC) to support Indigenous language preservation and revitalization work. In a written statement, the province said this investment nearly doubles its past annual allotment to First Nations-led language programming. The FPCC says this is the first time it has received a long-term funding commitment for programs from the province.
