First Nation Promotes Community To Potential Investors

McGuinty Government Supporting Local Economy, Preparing For Future Jobs

The Kiashke Zaaging Anishinaabek First Nation plans to more effectively market itself to investors to attract economic development.

With support from the Northern Communities Investment Readiness (NCIR) program, the Kiashke Zaaging Anishinaabek First Nation will build inventories of its local infrastructure and resources as well as its community’s broad-based skills to help attract potential investors to the area. The data collected will be used to create a community profile for the Invest in Ontario website.

This initiative is part of the government’s five-year Open Ontario plan to create jobs and promote economic opportunities in Northern Ontario.
