First Nations Are Growing Economic Force

Prime Minister Trudeau is vowing to improve the lives of indigenous peoples but it’s not all gloom and doom. J-P Gladu, President and C-E-O of the Canadian Aboriginal Business Council, says First Nations people contribute a lot more to the economy than people believe.

He puts to a business study that estimates economic output by Aboriginals this year will exceed 30 billion dollars.

Gladu says there are more than 37 thousand aboriginal businesses. He argues business ties could be strengthened if more of us got out of our comfort zones.
