A Way Forward: Ontario’s Path Towards Economic Reconciliation, Equity and Inclusive Growth

Part I: Establishing Equity in Education &
Employment for Indigenous Peoples

Published: April 16, 2025

The Ontario Chamber of Commerce (OCC) and Canadian Council for Indigenous Business (CCIB) are proud to announce the launch of A Way Forward: Ontario’s Path Towards Economic Reconciliation, Equity and Inclusive Growth—a multi-part report series designed to guide businesses on their journey toward meaningful reconciliation.

This joint initiative supports the implementation of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Call to Action #92 by supporting businesses in their efforts to create more inclusive and equitable workplaces for Indigenous Peoples through actionable insights and recommendations.

The first chapter outlines actions that employers, educational institutions, and governments can take to support Indigenous employment, strengthen partnerships with Indigenous communities, and embed reconciliation into organizational strategies.
