Not an official page
Yale First Nation did not publish this, and has not claimed it.

It is the federal funding record, compiled by NationWorks from the Government of Canada's open data. Nothing here comes from the Nation. If you work for Yale First Nation, you can claim it — and get a website, a services directory and a jobs board on your own address, free to publish and yours to control.

Since 2016

By year

By agreement start date. 2025 is drawn hollow because federal disclosure lags by months and the year has not finished reporting — not because funding stopped.

Against other Nations in BC

Yale First Nation against the twelve largest in BC by disclosed funding, appended at the end because it is outside them. Size of a Nation and what it administers on its own vary enormously, so this is context, not a ranking of anything.
