The conference at the NorWester Conference Centre examined opportunities and the challenges facing Indigenous businesses in the region.

THUNDER BAY — The Anishnawbe Business Professional Association hosted a panel discussion regarding the impact of Indigenous business in Northern Ontario on Thursday.

"There's still a very colonial processes in place that is continually showing barriers . . . and people need to be mindful of those barriers and create ways to address them," Thompson said. Thompson noted, "There are many times where I feel like we're a charity case, and we're approached as a charity case, and that's not the intent of reconciliation."

"We want to get as much information as possible from the Indigenous organizations and businesses and we're encouraging them to really get involved and get engaged," Thompson said.
