Indigenous leadership is shaping 2025 and beyond - socially, economically and culturally. First Nations and Indigenous organizations are developing housing, businesses, and resource sector projects. These organizations are utilizing legislative venues only open to them, and in doing so they are pushing through the clutter, increasing the pace of approval and delivering permits where cities and municipalities can’t. And First Nations are working to steward the environment with programs and principles that protect our province and celebrate the unique relationships Indigenous people have with the land. Leadership is a key element to those success stories – the vision, energy, and persistence of individuals leading the way. Join us Jan 28 for a conversation with a panel of outstanding Indigenous leaders and allies, remarkable individuals who are getting it done: · Crystal Smith – Chief Councillor, @Haisla_Nation · Chief Derek Epp – Chiyaqtel First Nation · Christy Smith – Senior Vice President at Falkirk Environmental Consultants and a member of the K’ómoks First Nation · Stephen Lee – CEO of @MusqueamCapital · Catherine Pennington (@cj_pennington) Director, Indigenous Advisory Services at @KPMG_Canada and citizen of the Metis Nation · Ethan Clark – Co-Founder and CEO of @Nationsfirstio We hope you can join us for the conversation.
