There are no follow-up actions currently in progress. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>2- Post-mortem: AFNQL\/Coph Regional Housing Meeting<\/h3>\n<p>The discussions highlighted the following points:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Positive Points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The two-part format (virtual information session + in-person discussions and workshops) helps<br \/>\nmaintain momentum and appears to be well-received.<\/li>\n<li>Strong presence of the regional chief with a unifying message.<\/li>\n<li>Good mobilization of chiefs and significant presence of the next generation of housing leaders.<\/li>\n<li>High turnout (over 110 people) with a high level of interaction (questions and comments).<\/li>\n<li>Relevant presentations that encouraged discussion and participation. Notable examples include<br \/>\nthose related to the Housing Circuit Riders (HCRs), the Housing Management Plan, and the<br \/>\nManikaso Centre.<\/li>\n<li>High-quality facilitation and very well-managed logistics.<\/li>\n<li>A 0unifying and collaborative atmosphere.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Areas for improvement <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Provide more networking opportunities (e.g., add a 4-to-6-style activity, longer lunch breaks, and<br \/>\nextended breaks).<\/li>\n<li>Better highlight certain content (HCRs, Point of Contact in Housing).<\/li>\n<li>Adjust the length of certain presentations, which should be limited to a maximum of 1.5 hours or<br \/>\nseparated by a break. The session on artificial intelligence was relevant but too long (the audience<br \/>\nlost focus).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>3- Build Canada Homes: Status Report<\/h3>\n<p>Discussion and sharing following the presentation by Marc-Andr\u00e9 Anderson (Housing, Infrastructure and<br \/>\nCommunities Canada) on the new federal Agency Build Canada Homes, delivered at the Regional Housing<br \/>\nMeeting.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4- Build Canada Homes (BCH) \u2013 Regional Approach and Strategy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The RTHC agrees that developing a project-based conceptual approach\u2014tailored to and led by Quebec\u2019s<br \/>\nFirst Nations\u2014is the best way to attract the interest of BCH. This would be a project specific to the Quebec<br \/>\nregion.<\/p>\n<p>This approach would take into account the implementation capacities as well as the housing governance<br \/>\nstructure specific to Quebec\u2019s First Nations communities<\/p>\n<p>The RTHC\u2019s Operational Committee has been tasked with developing and proposing this approach. It<br \/>\nwould then be presented by Lance Haymond to the authorities at BCH.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>5- Next Meeting<\/h3>\n<p>The Operational Committee will make a recommendation regarding potential dates for the next meeting.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>6- Adjournment<\/h3>\n<p>The meeting is adjourned at 12:00 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Regional Tripartite Housing Committee (RTHC) MINUTES Meeting of January 29, 2026 ________________________________________________________________________________ &nbsp; ATTENDEES: AFNQL : Chef Lance Haymond \u2013 Guy Latouche &nbsp; CMHC: Pierre B\u00e9langer \u2013 Ina Wielinga \u2013 JF Samuel \u2013 Kelly Marquis &nbsp; ISC : Nathalie Sp\u00e9nard \u2013 Andr\u00e9 Dansereau \u2013 Sean Somers &#8211; Isabelle D\u00e9ry &nbsp; ABSENT : Isabelle D\u00e9ry (ISC) [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","mandate-tag":[66],"mandate-category":[65],"class_list":["post-9699","mandate","type-mandate","status-publish","hentry","mandate-tag-housing","mandate-category-housing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnql.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mandate\/9699","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnql.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mandate"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnql.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mandate"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnql.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9699"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"mandate-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnql.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mandate-tag?post=9699"},{"taxonomy":"mandate-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnql.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mandate-category?post=9699"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
