Indigenous community support
As a member of the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business, we’re committed to empowering Canadian Indigenous businesses to secure a better future and help deliver transformative outcomes for their communities. We’re building awareness both internally and externally around knowledge about Indigenous Peoples, and we continue to advance economic reconciliation through a diverse supply chain that includes Indigenous companies.
See how we’re collaborating with organizations and communities to provide equitable access to jobs, training and education opportunities for Indigenous Peoples, and how we’re educating our people on the histories and cultures of Indigenous communities.

Robert Hewitt is proud. Inspired by his Indigenous heritage and motivated to help others understand the cultures and achievements of Indigenous Peoples and communities. Robert says EY fosters a culture of belonging by helping him explore ways to share his heritage at work and engage with Indigenous groups. He channels those opportunities into relationships and dialogue that connect colleagues with First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples — to help build a more inclusive future.
