Cando is delighted to have partnered with Innovate BC to deliver the Innovate BC Webinar Series, which provided weekly training and skill development opportunities to Cando members (Economic Development Officers and Indigenous community leaders) located in B.C. First Nations communities. Most Cando members in B.C. do not have access to economic development or business development training and networking opportunities in the remote and isolated communities in which they live and work. Without Innovate BC partnering with Cando, these sessions would not have been delivered and the skill development, training and motivation that resulted would not have been possible. This would have been an additional burden on Indigenous communities during the pandemic. —Ray Wanuch, Executive Director, Cando 2021–2022 IMPACT REPORT | 17
