February 2, 2025
On January 23rd, 2025, the BC First Nations Business Development Association (FNBDA) and the British Columbia Construction Association (BCCA) came together to sign a transformative Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
This landmark agreement signifies a shared commitment to advancing economic reconciliation and fostering meaningful partnerships between BC First Nations and the construction industry. By integrating First Nations perspectives into programs, creating inclusive training opportunities, and promoting fair procurement practices, this collaboration paves the way for a more equitable, sustainable, and prosperous future for all.
A key highlight of this MoU is the formation of a dedicated working group to strategize and implement initiatives that include First Nations in the construction sector, opening doors to new opportunities, partnerships, and growth.
“Together, we’re building more than structures — we’re building a future rooted in respect, collaboration, and shared success,” said BCCA via press release.
“A heartfelt thank you to Michael Bonshor, Managing Director of FNBDA, and Chris Atchison, President of BCCA, for their leadership and vision. This is a monumental step forward for reconciliation and economic development in British Columbia.”
