Canada’s trade diversification strategy is a strong push to both open new markets around the world and to ensure more segments of Canadian society have the tools, capacity and confidence to compete and succeed in them. That effort must include Indigenous peoples. Trade agreements, such as the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, signed with partners in the fast growing Asia-Pacific market, as well as targeted trade missions, such as the one to New Zealand open new doors to international trade for Indigenous peoples and Indigenous-owned businesses.
