Abstract

First Nations communities are struggling for the most part, in the areas that promote well-being and form the basis for a vigorous economic profile. OCN member and Special Projects officer, Paskwayak Business Development Corporation, Duncan Lathlin calls the Friendship Accord a strong foundation in the partnership that opened needed dialogue (Personal Communication, June 9, 2017). According to Roque, another example of the collaboration having impact, is on the way they do business. [...]The Pas' community development corporation (CDC) which focuses on municipal business was resurrected but didn't stop there.
