How does LMTAC fit into the larger context of treaty negotiations?
Although Local Governments are not one of the three principles in the BC Treaty Process, LMTAC is a full member of the Provincial negotiating team and provides advice and guidance to Provincial negotiators and its member Local Governments on treaty and Aboriginal issues from a community perspective. While LMTAC’s work is most focused on issues affecting the Lower Mainland area, LMTAC has also played a key role in provincial and national discussions involving treaty and Aboriginal issues. For example, in May 1999, LMTAC delivered a presentation to the federal Senate on Bill C-49, the First Nations Management Act, and its affect on Local Government. Also, LMTAC members participated in a province-wide urban issues working group organized by the Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM).
