These offices mostly coordinate relations, consultation, land claims and funding for communities and organizations. Services for individuals (health, education, housing, child and family services) are often delivered by First Nations, Métis and Inuit governments and organizations, by the federal government (Indigenous Services Canada) or by ordinary provincial departments. Names and ministers change; confirm on the official page. This page is a starting point, not a list of every organization. Rules, fees and programs change and were read on 2026-11-14: confirm with the official source. General information, not legal advice. Quebec follows its own rules: see atlasquebec.ca.
