Annex A — Activity Sheets

This Annex refers to the implementation of selected provisions of the KDFNFA.

The activities described in this Annex reflect the agreement of the Parties as to the activities which the Parties expect to be performed in order to give effect to the referenced provisions.

The planning assumptions described in relation to a referenced provision reflect the circumstances considered or expected to arise in the implementation of that provision. Some planning assumptions also reflect steps or measures that the Parties assume will be taken, or limitations that may apply, in the performance of the described activities.

In the development of this Annex, it has been assumed that the Parties will deal by other means with matters required by the KDFNFA to be addressed prior to the Effective Date or in the negotiation or ratification of the KDFNFA.

The fact that an activity sheet does not cross-reference the KDFNFA dispute resolution mechanism pursuant to KDFNFA Chapter 26 should not be construed to mean that the dispute resolution mechanism is not applicable to that activity sheet.

Unless otherwise indicated on an activity sheet, workplan discussions and negotiations, in which KDFN is a party and which take place pursuant to these activity sheets, shall be held in the City of Whitehorse (hereinafter referred to as "Whitehorse") unless reasons arise that make it more reasonable to meet elsewhere.

RESPONSIBLE PARTY:
Canada

PARTICIPANT/LIAISON:
SSC and affected YFNs

OBLIGATIONS ADDRESSED:

16.10.9 Where the Total Allowable Catch is less than what is required to satisfy the basic needs allocations of Yukon First Nations within the Yukon River drainage basin, the Total Allowable Catch shall be distributed among the affected Yukon First Nations on a pro rata basis proportional to their share of the total basic needs allocation for that drainage basin.

16.10.13 Where:

16.10.13.1 a Total Allowable Catch is less than the total basic needs allocation in a season for the affected Yukon First Nations, and it is subsequently determined that the spawning escapement targets for Conservation were greater than was actually required for Conservation in that season; or

16.10.13.2 subject to an agreement entered into pursuant to 16.10.8, Government allocates Salmon to other fisheries which results in there being insufficient Salmon available to a Yukon First Nation to harvest its basic needs allocation for a drainage basin,

Government shall, in subsequent years, allocate additional Salmon to the affected Yukon First Nations, in proportion to their share of the total basic needs allocation, from any Salmon which are not required for Conservation for that drainage basin, so that, over a six year period, the Yukon First Nations are allocated, on average, their total basic needs allocation.

CROSS REFERENCED CLAUSES:
16.10.8

Responsibility Activities Timing
Canada If the Total Allowable Catch is less than what is required to satisfy the basic needs allocation, distribute the available Total Allowable Catch among the affected YFNs on a pro rata basis proportional to their share of the total basic needs allocation. As required once the drainage basin basic needs allocation is established
Canada If conditions identified in 16.10.13 occur, make necessary increases from any Salmon which are not required for Conservation to each affected YFN's annual allocation in order that after a period of no more than six years each YFN's average annual basic needs allocation is met. Over a period of the next 6 years

Planning Assumptions

  1. The Department of Fisheries and Oceans ("DFO") will assume the lead role for Canada.
  2. Where inaccurate pre-season or in-season Total Allowable Catch determinations result in an inability to meet the basic needs allocation for the drainage basin and other commercial and sport fisheries have harvested Salmon, Government will subsequently adjust the affected YFN's annual basic needs allocations. The intention would be to provide for that adjustment within the Total Allowable Catch established for the following year if it is reasonable to do so.
  3. Where the in-season Total Allowable Catch is less than what is required to satisfy the basic needs allocation of a YFN pursuant to 16.10.9 in any one year for any other reason than those described in 16.10.13, no adjustment of that YFN's basic needs allocation will be made.
  4. Government will make best efforts to refer these issues to the SSC for their consideration and input prior to making a determination pursuant to this clause.
  5. A temporary reduction or cancellation of commercial or other fisheries may be required in order to allow Government to allocate the necessary additional fish to the YFNs basic needs allocation fishery.
  6. Precise determinations of spawning escapement cannot be made with existing DFO management practices, therefore, determinations pursuant to 16.10.13.1 may be difficult to assess. In recognition of this difficulty, and consistent with clause 16.10.8, every effort will be made in the setting and allocation of the annual Total Allowable Catch to meet the requirements of the YFNs' basic needs allocations for the drainage basin before allocating Salmon to other users.

Canada Pursuant to the terms and conditions set out in Annex C of the KDFN SGFTA, pay to KDFN the amount of assistance calculated using the applicable formula set out in the planning assumptions section of this activity sheet. As soon as practicable

PLANNING ASSUMPTIONS:

  1. The May 15 and July 2nd dates referenced in the timing for activities above are deadlines established in the current Assessment and Taxation Act, R.S.Y. 1986, c. 10, for the issuance of tax notices and payment of taxes, respectively. Similarly, the February 15 date referenced is the deadline established in the current Home Owners Grant Act , R.S.Y. 1986, c. 84, for filing applications for Yukon homeowner's grants in respect of the preceding taxation year. These dates may be subject to change from time to time.
  2. Yukon will provide a list of all fee simple properties on KDFN Settlement Land when the application form for the homeowner's grant is sent to the KDFN. As part of the process of applying for the homeowner's grant, KDFN will sign a declaration concerning eligibility of properties for the homeowner's grant.
  3. A self-government financial transfer agreement (SGFTA) between Canada and KDFN will be in effect which will provide for the payment of the property tax assistance described in 20.7.1.
  4. Formulas for Calculation of Property Taxation Assistance: If the Effective Date of the KDFNFA falls on a day other than January 1, the following formulas will be used to calculate the amount of assistance to be paid for each of the ten years for which property taxation assistance is to be paid. The amount of property taxation assistance provided for each of the ten years will be in respect of portions of two calendar years, calculated as follows:

    X = the number of days in the calendar year from January 1 up to and including the day prior to the Effective Date or the anniversary thereof;

    Y = the number of days remaining in the calendar year, from the Effective Date or anniversary thereof to December 31, inclusive; and,

    T = the amount of the property taxes paid by KDFN for that taxation year minus the homeowner's grant received by KDFN for that year.

    Assistance
    YEAR 1: (T x Y/365) x 100% = _________
    YEAR 2: (T x X/365) x 100% + (T x Y/365) x 90% = _________
    YEAR 3: (T x X/365) x 90% + (T x Y/365) x 80% = _________
    YEAR 4: (T x X/365) x 80% + (T x Y/365) x 70% = _________
    YEAR 5: (T x X/365) x 70% + (T x Y/365) x 60% = _________
    YEAR 6: (T x X/365) x 60% + (T x Y/365) x 50% = _________
    YEAR 7: (T x X/365) x 50% + (T x Y/365) x 40% = _________
    YEAR 8: (T x X/365) x 40% + (T x Y/365) x 30% = _________
    YEAR 9: (T x X/365) x 30% + (T x Y/365) x 20% = _________
    YEAR 10: (T x X/365) x 20% + (T x Y/365) x 10% = _________
    YEAR 11: (T x X/365) x 10% = _________

    This table will be adjusted to take leap years into account as appropriate.

ANNEX B — COMMISSIONS, COUNCILS AND COMMITTEES

Application

This Annex applies as provided herein to the:

hereinafter called the "Boards".

Contents

This Annex has five parts:

These parts, as they apply, are to be read together. Their provisions reflect the agreement of the Parties with respect to the establishment and operation of the Boards, and the related arrangements and activities which the Parties expect to perform in those connections.

Part 1 — General Provisions

Initial Nominations and Appointments:
Ibex Renewable Resources Council

Each party has a right to nominate Ibex Renewable Resources Council ("IRRC") members as provided by the KDFNFA in paragraphs 2.12.2 (all), 16.6.2 (all), 16.6.4 (all) and 16.6.5 (all).

The process of nomination and appointment will require each party to identify, recruit and select nominees in an effective manner. The procedures and criteria to be used in that respect are within the discretion of the nominating party.

To establish the initial complement of RRC members, each party should commence its procedures to identify prospective nominees upon ratification of the KDFNFA by all Parties. The Minister will request nominations pursuant to KDFNFA 2.12.2.2 as soon as practicable after the date of signing of the KDFNFA by the Parties.

Nominations, including a statement of the initial term for which a particular nomination may be made (KDFNFA 16.6.5.1), shall be forwarded to theMinister within the time provided by KDFNFA 2.12.2.2. The Minister will appoint the nominees in sufficient time for the RRC to be in place as indicated in Part 4 of this Annex.

To facilitate these procedures, each party should confirm that its proposed nominees are ready to serve on the RRC prior to submitting its nominations to theMinister. If a nominee declines an appointment, theMinister and the nominating party should take steps as soon as practicable to ensure that a new nominee is identified and appointed.

Initial Nominations and Appointments:
Regional Land Use Planning Commission and Settlement Land Committee

The initial nominations and appointments for the Regional Land Use Planning Commission ("RLUPC") and Settlement Land Committee ("SLC") will be made as provided in Part 4 of this Annex.

On-Going Process for Nominations and Appointments:
Ibex Renewable Resources Council and Regional Land Use Planning Commission

1. Replacement of Board Members

Upon termination of the initial appointments, the Parties should follow the procedures outlined in KDFNFA 2.12.2.2 to 2.12.2.4 and above, in respect of the initial appointments, to ensure that repeat or replacement nominations are submitted and appointments take effect in a timely manner. The Parties should use best efforts to avoid vacancies arising on the Boards due to failures in the nominating or appointing process.

If a vacancy during term arises on a Board, the Parties should follow the same procedures to ensure that a replacement nominee is appointed at the earliest practicable date for a term consistent with the provisions of KDFNFA 2.12.2.11.

2. Removal for Cause

The authority to remove a Board member lies with the appointing Minister. It is acknowledged that theMinister will choose whether to exercise that authority on the basis of any relevant information which theMinister may receive. However, theMinister should act to remove a Board member only after consultation with the nominating party, subject to requirements for confidentiality. A replacement for the member removed should be nominated and appointed as soon as practicable.

Where a Board chooses to specify grounds for the removal of a member pursuant to KDFNFA 2.12.2.7, that Board should communicate those grounds in writing to the nominating parties and the Minister as soon as those grounds have been adopted by the Board.

3. Resignation of a Member

A Board may wish to establish rules or procedures concerning the resignation of Board members. It is recommended that Board members who wish to resign during their term be required to communicate their resignation in writing to the Board, and that the Board immediately advise the Minister of the resignation. A replacement for the member who resigned should be nominated and appointed as soon as practicable.

Organization of the Board

The RRC and RLUPC, within the first 60 days after being established by appointments, should convene at least one meeting. The initial meeting of the Board should be convened by the members with such organizational assistance from the appointing Minister or Minister's representative as may be required to complete the necessary arrangements.

At its initial meeting or as soon as practicable thereafter, each Board should address:

(a) the selection or nomination of a Chair and/or Vice-Chair, as the KDFNFA may provide in respect of that Board;

(b) any rules and procedures which it may require pursuant to KDFNFA 2.12.2.7 and 2.12.2.10;

(c) the Board budget and the completion of related financial arrangements;

(d) any organizational and policy matters, and arrangements with respect to support services and facilities required for the discharge of its mandate under the KDFNFA; and

(e) any arrangements required with respect to the training and cross-cultural orientation and education of Board members.

Board Services and Facilities

It is expected that the RRC and RLUPC will arrange for the support services and facilities they require. The Boards may co-operate in these arrangements, as they may find convenient. In determining their arrangements, the Boards should consider the training and economic opportunities which may be made available to Yukon First Nations, and the specific provisions of the KDFNFA.

Part 2 — Board Training and Cross-Cultural Orientation and Education

Part 2 applies to the Ibex Renewable Resources Council, Regional Land Use Planning Commission and Settlement Land Committee ("SLC").

For the purposes of KDFNFA 2.12.2.9, 28.3.5, 28.3.7 and the SLC, Board training should include:

  1. training in Board procedures and functions;
  2. training directed to improve Board members' ability to carry out their responsibilities in the field or fields within the mandate of the Board;
  3. familiarization with the provisions of the KDFNFA; and
  4. cross-cultural orientation and education.

1. Board procedures and functions

This training should reflect both internal Board needs and needs of the Board in relation to public process. It should enable a Board to develop the internal rules it may require and to develop its approach and organization for decision-making. This latter area may include matters of policy development, planning, prioritization, time management and financial management. The timing of the different aspects of this training may vary from Board to Board.

It is strongly recommended that each Board assess and take steps, including budget provisions, to address its training requirements in these areas as soon as practicable after the Board is established. These requirements should be reassessed and addressed accordingly within 90 days after the termination of the initial appointments, for the benefit of the replacement nominees. The Board's previous training activities should be considered by subsequent members when assessing their training needs and the means by which those needs may be addressed.

Refresher training or specific needs for procedural advice during the term of a Board should be left for each Board to address as it deems necessary.

2. Training related to Board Mandate

Each Board should assess and take the steps necessary, including budget provisions, to address the training needs of its members which will enable them to improve their ability to carry out their responsibilities in the field or fields within the Board's mandate. It is recommended that this occur as soon as practicable in the first year of each Board's term and at least annually thereafter. The specific program or initiatives to be taken in this area should be left to each Board to decide and arrange as it may require.

3. Familiarization with the KDFNFA

The Parties have an interest in ensuring that the members of each Board understand the purposes of the Board under the KDFNFA. The Parties also have an interest in ensuring that this understanding is achieved through appropriate, balanced procedures.

As provided in KDFNFA 28.3.7, the Parties should jointly inform each Board about relevant provisions of the KDFNFA and KDFNFA Plan. This information program should be carried out in a co-operative, co-ordinated way. It should be completed as soon as is practicable after the Board is established, at a time convenient to the Board and the Parties.

Each party should designate representatives who will participate in this program. The designated participants should include persons who will facilitate the program generally, as well as persons who have actual knowledge of the negotiations and considerations which led to the provisions of the agreements in each area.

4. Cross-Cultural Orientation and Education

On-going cross-cultural awareness and sensitivity is important for the effective working of the Boards.

It is strongly recommended that each Board consider and take the steps necessary, including budget provisions, to ensure that its members have the benefit of cross-cultural orientation and education. This should be considered and addressed as soon as practicable in the term of each Board, and thereafter as may be required.

It is expected that cross-cultural orientation and education will relate to the mandate of each Board and address cultural values, attitudes, strengths and differences in ways that enable the members of each Board, as a cross-cultural group, to work well together to fulfill their mandate.

Part 3 — Aboriginal Language Services

This Part applies to the Ibex Renewable Resources Council, Regional Land Use Planning Commission and Settlement Land Committee.

The Boards should be able to conduct their proceedings in aboriginal languages when appropriate.

Aboriginal language services in Yukon are currently the subject of a multi-year agreement between Canada and Yukon. It is expected that aboriginal language services will be available to the Boards pursuant to such agreements as may be in place from time to time or through contracting with individuals or organizations for the services desired.

It is expected that all best efforts will be made to ensure that the language services the Boards may require will be available to them at the earliest practicable date.

Part 4 — Board Mandates and Activities

The following provisions address the mandates, the expected activities, and the relevant specific arrangements, in respect of each of the Boards.
