Len Anderson
Our Indigenous President & CEO
We take our Indigenous roots seriously.
And so does the government of Canada. This is why they have committed to awarding 5% of federal contracts to businesses led by Indigenous Peoples.

Public procurement in Canada (federal, provincial, municipal) represents approximately $200 billion in annual economic activity. Of this, federal spending averages $22 billion per year.
The mandate letter for the minister of Public Services and Procurement includes a commitment to “work with the minister of Indigenous Services and the president of the Treasury Board to create more opportunities for Indigenous businesses to succeed and grow by creating a new target to have at least 5% of federal contracts awarded to businesses managed and led by Indigenous Peoples.”
“I am directing every single minister to determine what they can do in their specific portfolio to accelerate and build on the progress we have made with First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples”—Prime Minister of Canada, Minister Anand’s mandate letter, December 13, 2019.
