The only way Canada will be able to compete globally is to ensure Indigenous peoples have the same opportunities to participate in our economy as others.

Our Position

A great deal is being said about reconciliation with Indigenous peoples. Businesses and Indigenous peoples will not wait and do not need to be led by government in moving forward with reconciliation and the actions that make it meaningful. In many instances they have long been living reconciliation day-to-day, providing lessons from which government – and all of us – can learn.
