National Indigenous Economic Strategy is a road map for building Indigenous economies
There are more than 50,000 Indigenous businesses in Canada. They operate in every sector of the economy, and contribute $32 billion to the country鈥檚 GDP. And Indigenous businesses are poised to grow further, said Dr. Marie Delorme in an interview with Prof. Karl Moore for The Globe and Mail. Economic prosperity is critical to achieving reconciliation, says Delorme, who is CEO and founder of the Imagination Group of Companies. The National Indigenous Economic Strategy is a road map. Published in June 2022 by a coalition of national Indigenous organizations, the strategy includes 107 calls to economic prosperity that serve as a road map to guide governments, industry and institutions in their work on reconciliation and building Indigenous economies.
