Federally funded research in Canada is of significant scope and scale. The implications of research in the colonial project has resulted in a fraught relationship between Indigenous Peoples and Western research. Research governance, as an aspect of public administration, is evolving. The relationality inherent in new public governance (NPG)—a nascent public governance regime—may align with Indigenous relationality concepts. Recent societal advances, such as the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), the Truth and Reconcilliation Commission of Canada (TRC), and the Indigenous Institutes Act in Ontario, provide further impetus for Indigenous self-determination in multiple domains including research. This article advocates for Indigenous research sovereignty and concludes with suggestions for ways in which federal funding agencies, specifically the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), could contribute to the advancement of Indigenous research sovereignty.

推进土著研究主权：公共管理趋势和加拿大研究治理中有意义的对话的机会

在加拿大，由联邦政府资助的研究具有重要的范围和规模。殖民项目中研究的意义导致了土著人民与西方研究之间的紧张关系。作为公共管理的一个方面，研究治理正在不断发展。新公共治理（NPG）（一种新生的公共治理制度）中固有的关系性可能与土著关系概念保持一致。最近的社会进步，例如《联合国土著人民权利宣言》（UNDRIP），加拿大真相与和解委员会（TRC）以及安大略省的《土著机构法》，进一步推动了多领域的土著人民自决包括研究。
