(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 06/19/13 -- Canada is facing a fundamental shift in how it will meet future labour needs as an aging population retires from the labour pool. The Aboriginal population is projected to grow at double the pace of non-Aboriginals between now and 2031. Meanwhile the number of Aboriginal entrepreneurs is far outpacing their non-Native counterparts at a ratio of 4 to 1. There are many opportunities for Aboriginals and non-Aboriginals to benefit from this expected growth, whether it is by filling jobs in a booming Western Canada or working with companies on reserve land to form partnerships and efficiently extract resources.
To mark National Aboriginal Day on June 21 - which will celebrate the cultures and contributions of Canada's First Nations - BMO will host a panel to discuss the economic progress of the Aboriginal communities and the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.
Media are invited to dial in to a panel conference call featuring experts from BMO and the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business who will discuss a number of topics, including:
