NITA has been
a key national organization in Canada for
the past fourteen years. Its activities and
services are extremely valuable to the Aboriginal
community. It is important that we build and
support our own national organizations in
Canada. We need to work together with organizations
like NITA to build capacity and provide the
services that our entrepreneurs and communities
will need to develop and grow into the future.

Business Association
[I wish]... to express
my general support for the work and activities of
the Native Investment and Trade Association. ("NITA").
For several years, Syncrude has been a proud sponsor
of high-profile events organized by NITA.
As the largest industrial employer of Aboriginal people
in Canada, Syncrude is pleased that there are national
Aboriginal organizations with capacity to contribute
to the same goals of communication, education, and
self-reliance that we also support. Through our Aboriginal
employment strategy we have learned that there are
mutual benefits to working constructively together
with the Aboriginal community. As former Chair of
the Conference Board of Canada (an organizartion that
has done much research into the economic issues impacting
Aboriginal people) it is heartening to realize that
there are Aboriginal counterpart organizations like
NITA that are also trying to make a difference.
