I'm a testament to having education and scholarships, people in the community pushing you to pursue further education. I am very grateful for that. If I did not have the late Herb Belcourt, who supported me through my journey, I would not be here speaking to you right now. But I think it goes to very many different levels. You have the professional education. We want more indigenous doctors, lawyers and politicians, but we also want more indigenous tradespeople, we also want elders, we want school children to begin to think as entrepreneurs.
I think that indigenous people are inherently entrepreneurs. They're naturally hard workers from what I've seen around the world. It's not about forcing this, but providing the opportunity for different levels to learn different ways of doing things. From what I've seen, for example, with school children—and this is in El Oriente, where there are shared bathrooms, the homes don't even have their own toilets—you have these school children who are interested in learning about what is a business case, or how could I do this or what are other people doing? I think it's taking that interest and engaging with them and beginning to socialize these western concepts.
