| Abstract: |
The relationship between Canada’s business community and its Aboriginal people is becoming more constructive. The growing interest of Canadian companies in forging new relationships based on mutual respect and mutual benefit is attributed to a number of factors. These include recent legal developments, such as the enforcement of employment equity legislation, human rights laws, surface lease agreements and land claims. Another factor is the fundamental changes that have been transforming the business environment, such as demographic trends, economic development, land-use considerations and the growing recognition of the economic benefits of constructive relationships. Most corporate Aboriginal relations initiatives seek to eliminate barriers, offer solutions and provide opportunities for Canada’s native population. |
