It has been a little unclear to me the relationship between the federal government and the CCIB. I can assure you that, with a quick scan of their membership criteria, how they decide what an indigenous business is suggests that they are recognizing thousands of non-indigenous businesses as indigenous. If you're relying on an organization like the CCIB, I think it's necessary to have a conversation with them about changing their criteria.
More generally, I think the federal government needs to show resolve when it comes to this issue, immediately. They have failed to do that so far.
