DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n	\n		\n			The 1990 Oka Crisis sent Canada on a reconciliation j
 ourney and forced the Government to examine its fundamentally broken relat
 ionship with Indigenous people. One of the ways to improve this relationsh
 ip is economic prosperity through economic reconciliation. In this discuss
 ion\, David Acco will explore what is economic reconciliation and the art 
 of the possible to achieve it.\n\n			This session is presented in connection 
 with McCord’s exhibition Indigenous Voices of Today: Knowledge\, Trauma\, 
 Resilience.\n\n			 \n\n			About David Carrière-Acco\n\n			David Carrière-Acco\, is

 l to create opportunity to Indigenous people but also bring greater workpl

 in Canadian economy and workforce within a spirit of Nation-to-Nation rela
 tionship.\n\n			Today\, David is passionate about the use technology combined

  and climate adaptation solutions for all of Canada and continues his work
