b'For generations, Aboriginal people have provided goods and resources to help Canada grow. That tradition continues today with more than 43,000 Aboriginal businesses ready to help Canada compete and win. Aboriginal business is thriving and ready. But, for many reasons, Aboriginal businesses are underrepresented in the supply chains of most Canadian corporations and governments. Thats why the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business (CCAB) is looking for ways to strengthen connections between corporate Canada, government and Aboriginal businesses from coast, to coast, to coast.What can I do?
