Forest Consultation and Revenue Sharing Agreements

Last updated on September 15, 2024

Forest Consultation and Revenue Sharing Agreements (FCRSAs) provide First Nations with economic benefits returning directly to their community based on harvest activities in their asserted traditional territories.

NOTE: To find a complete up-to-date list of FCRSAs for a particular First Nation please see First Nations A-Z listing page.

Co-developing a new forestry revenue sharing model

As part of the B.C. government’s commitment to a new fiscal framework  that recognizes Indigenous governance and jurisdiction, the Province is working with First Nations to co-develop a new forestry revenue sharing model.

To ensure First Nations see immediate benefits while the new model is being developed, B.C. is providing an interim increase to the rates under the FCRSA program. Since April 2022, this interim lift has more than doubled forestry revenue sharing – increasing the amount available to be shared with First Nations by about $63 million per year.
