Economic Reconciliation: A Model for Shared Prosperity
A new economic future is taking shape in Canada – one rooted in Indigenous leadership, ownership, and partnership. Across the country, Indigenous nations are driving transformative change: building development corporations, investing in major infrastructure and energy projects, and asserting self-determination through economic strength.
This momentum unfolds against a backdrop of national economic uncertainty. The federal government’s proposed Building Canada Act (Bill C-5) is positioned as a solution, but many Indigenous leaders have raised serious concerns about its implications for rights, jurisdiction, and decision-making.
This live panel brings together visionary Indigenous leaders to explore what true economic Reconciliation demands, not just in principle, but in practice. What does it mean to build an economy that provides space for Indigenous prosperity and how can Manitoba, home to one of the largest populations of First Nations and Metis people, lead the way in shaping a more just and inclusive economic future?
