WGOB In Conversation: Pathway to Truth and Reconciliation with Helen Bobiwash

Business leaders have a key role to play in the path to truth and reconciliation. As we commemorate National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, it's critical for members of Canada's business community to not only honour the painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools, but commit to action towards reconciliation with Indigenous peoples in Canada. To examine what that action looks like in practice, Deborah Rosati was joined by Helen Bobiwash, a board member, business leader, and member of the Thessalon First Nation, to discuss the path to truth and reconciliation. Throughout their discussion, they explore how corporate directors can build trust and enhance connections between corporate Canada and Indigenous communities, creating new opportunities and economic benefits for everyone. They dig into the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action for businesses and unpack the implications for board directors, examining how boards can educate themselves and respond meaningfully and effectively. "I see my role, whether it's as an accountant who has worked formerly with First Nations, or now as a board director, is really focused on uplifting the well-being of our communities—Indigenous communities, but also the greater society within Canada and across Mother Earth," says Helen. "I do believe that if Indigenous people and non-Indigenous people can walk beside each other and work together with mutual respect and shared responsibility, we can all thrive."
