Common use of Federal Contribution Clause in Contracts

Federal Contribution. Canada originally agreed to contribute 50 per cent of the expenditures that Manitoba incurs in providing eligible programs and services under the LMAPD, up to a maximum of $7,914.0 million annually for the two- year period of the Agreement. The March 2004 federal budget included an additional $30 million nationally for Labour Market Agreements for Persons with Disabilities. Beginning in 2004/05, this additional funding was allocated on a per capita basis, following deductions of funds required to create a base funding level of $1.25 million for smaller jurisdictions (▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Island, Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut). This new funding amounted to an additional $1,051.0 million for Manitoba, resulting in an increase in the federal contribution level from $7,914.0 million to $8,965.0 million annually. PRINCIPLES OF LMAPD The LMAPD is guided by the following principles: Principles • Persons with disabilities should be fully included in Canada’s social and economic mainstream, a key element of which is successful participation in the labour market. Fostering greater self-reliance through obtaining and maintaining meaningful employment will help persons with disabilities achieve inclusion; • A diverse set of approaches is required to support both persons with disabilities and employers in order to improve the employment situation of persons with disabilities; • Persons with disabilities should have access to mainstream and targeted employment programming to ensure their successful participation in the labour market; • Employment-related and workplace supports are critical to the success of persons with disabilities in the labour market; • Supports and services should be individualized, holistic, linked to other needed support systems, easy to access, portable across life transitions, timely and inclusive; • Co-operation and partnership between governments, persons with disabilities, community-based organizations, business, labour, Aboriginal, Métis and Inuit peoples and other stakeholders is key to the success of a comprehensive labour market strategy; and • Accountability and reporting to citizens in order to demonstrate results and inform program and policy development is a foundation of this framework.
