FNTC-specific terminology and expressions can be found on this client's website. It has both English and French versions. (See accompanying links above.)
Although there is a great deal of archived material on the site, the site is not equiped with a search capability. Therefore, your terminology search may require some digging.
Note: Commission de la fiscalité des premières nations features a lower case 'p' in the word "premières". The stated/desired convention as handed down by the client is that a lower case 'p' is to be used wherever the term première(s) nations(s) is used in a long form name. The French version of the law establishing the FNTC (by an act of parliament) identifies la CFPN with a lower case 'p' in the spelling of premières nations.
If you use the Google search engine, you can search on the word, expression or sentence and add the expression +gc.ca to the search string. Example: first nations financial management board +gc.ca
Time-Saving Tip #1: Using the Google Canada search engine (i.e. google.ca), perform a search on the word, expression or sentence and confine your search to the "Search: pages from Canada" option for optimal results. (In other words, click on the "Search: pages from Canada" radio button before executing your search.) Adding the expression +gc.ca to the search string may also prove helpful in narrowing the search results.
Time-Saving Tip #2: If the page you have navigated to contains a great deal of text, you can avoid having to read or scroll the whole page by simply searching the page for the expression you are seeking in order to find its relative position. Note: To search a web page, use your browser's Search Capability (not the website's search function).
Time-Saving Tip #3: The process of toggling between English and French pages can be a bit arduous in some instances. One technique that works for us is to open two web pages, one that is kept on the location of the English, while the second is scrolled to find the French equivalent.
