Part of Aboriginal-Business Connection Series 2 (ABC2)

With major energy infrastructure projects waiting to be approved, equity partnerships can help by allowing Aboriginal communities to share in both the wealth and the risk associated with the projects.

These partnerships encourage long-term development by looking at the relationship between service companies and Aboriginal communities.

Join us for a panel discussion that will explore how to structure agreements and build relationships with Aboriginal communities.

The effects of the June Flood are still being felt throughout Southern Alberta and the Stoney First Nation is no exception.

Flood recovery managers are in dire need of a large freezer truck (5-ton, preferably with a fridge option) that would be able to store the large amounts of food donations coming to the band.  According to those on site, donations are showing up randomly and have pushed the limits of the available storage capacity.

If any Chamber members are able to help, they are asked to contact First Nation Flood Recovery Coordinator Greg Bereza at 780 446 8559.
