Call for Proposals 2021/2022

The Indigenous Advisory and Monitoring Committee for the Trans Mountain Expansion and Existing Pipeline (IAMC-TMX) Call for Proposals invites Indigenous communities along the route to access up to $49,999 in funding for projects related to TMX. 

Tribal Councils or Not-For-Profit organizations are also eligible to receive funding if they are applying on behalf of one or more of the 129 potentially impacted Indigenous communities.

The Call for Proposals has a streamlined application process that makes it easier for communities to complete and that will also allow for funds to be quickly disbursed. 

Communities will be able to apply through one of four streams:

  1. Emergency Management
  2. Indigenous Monitoring
  3. Marine Shipping 
  4. Socio-Economic Effects

Each stream has three possible areas of focus: 

  1. Planning activities 
  2. Equipment purchase and training
  3. Skills development

Proposals will be approved on an ongoing basis from July 19 until December 15, 2021. Once approved, all projects must be completed by March 31, 2022.

If you require assistance with the application process or would like to submit an application, please contact: tmxcommittee-comitetmx@nrcan-rncan.gc.ca

On May 05, the IAMC-TMX is observing Red Dress Day, also known as the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls and Two-Spirit People (MMIWG2S). The IAMC-TMX Socioeconomic Subcommittee is collaborating with Natural Resources Canada, the lead department for UNDA Action Plan Measure 12, to better understand and respond to the ongoing gendered and racialized violence against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQIA+ people associated with the resource sector. On this important day, we encourage all Canadians to continue educating themselves about the MMIWG Calls for Justice and support MMIWG events in their local area.

The Indigenous Advisory and Monitoring Committee for Trans Mountain (IAMC-TMX) welcomes Budget 2024's investment in our continued work. We'll continue to work on shared goals of safety and protection of environmental and Indigenous interests regarding lands and water.

International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, March 21, recognizes past and present injustices and prejudices founded in racial discrimination, including the ongoing social and economic repercussions for Canada’s Indigenous peoples. The IAMC-TMX Socioeconomic Subcommittee (SESC) is committed to surfacing issues related to racial discrimination, including as this links to Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people, in the context of resource development activities. We show up for this work daily through direct engagement with Indigenous communities, research focused on Indigenous Peoples experience with the Trans Mountain Expansion Project, and our ongoing support to Indigenous communities building strengths in the area of socioeconomic monitoring. https://www.mmiwg-ffada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Executive_Summary.pdf
