Business, Corporate finance and entrepreneurial development are the fuel that keeps out province’s economy strong. Project Beyshick seeks to make the world of business and finance more Accessible to Aboriginal people. Its aim is to allow members of First nations to become equal partners in the economic prosperity of Canada. This innovative educational program puts people from Aboriginal communities all across Canada in the best classroom available – the real world of corporate finance. I extend my congratulations to the 21 recipients of this unique Opportunity. I comment the Nishnawbe Aski nation (NAN), Aditya Jha of the POA Educational Foundation and the Entrepreneurship Program of the Ryerson Business School for making this valuable project possible. Please accept my best wishes for a memorable evening.
