This Annual Report covers operations of the Trust for the fiscal period April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025. This marks the 22nd consecutive unqualified annual audit since the Trust\u2019s creation on May 26, 2003.<\/p>\n<p>During the 2024-2025 fiscal year, the First Nations Trust received $84,709.428 to distribute among our beneficiaries. This was a slight decrease from the amount received in the previous fiscal year.<\/p>\n<p>As Trustees, we take seriously our responsibility of fiscal openness, accountability and transparency and fulfilling our fiduciary responsibility to our beneficiaries &#8211; the First Nations in Saskatchewan. That is why we are proud to fulfill our mandate of audit confirmations and oversight while maintaining efficient operations. With the focused diligence of our staff and the commitment of all Trustees to deal with matters in a timely, cost-effective manner, we were able to maximize the funds available for distribution to our beneficiaries.<\/p>\n<p>We would like to thank the Leaders and staff of all First Nations in Saskatchewan for their continued compliance with the Trust Indenture and Trust policies and procedures. We look forward to continuing this excellent working relationship with them for many years to come.<\/p>\n<p>Respectfully,<\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 4\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>Sheila C.
