Maximum Eligible Amount
Government Grant
Fund Type
To take advantage of economic opportunities, an Aboriginal community must be ready in a number of ways. They may need start-up funds to undertake pre-development activities. They may need a partner or business leader who understands the involved industry. Or, they may need in-house expertise and management skills.
- The Community Opportunity Readiness Program addresses the financial needs of Aboriginal communities when they are in pursuit of, and wish to participate in, an economic opportunity. The program is a consolidation of the former community economic opportunities program, the major projects investment fund, and the community-based components of the Aboriginal Business Development Program.
- By helping communities become equipped to participate in an economic opportunity, AANDC can increase the participation of Aboriginal people in Canada's economy overall and improve the prosperity of Aboriginal communities and individuals.
