Across Canada, social enterprises are creating employment and strengthening Indigenous communities. Come to hear author Shaun Loney, co-founder of Aki Energy and other innovative Aboriginal social enterprises. Shaun will share stories and information about:

• Indigenous social enterprises in Manitoba that installed $8 million of clean, job-creating geothermal energy with no gov’t funding
• A 13-acre farm that is transforming the food economy in a remote First Nations community struggling with diabetes
• How social procurement in Winnipeg’s north end created 200 jobs for Indigenous youth
