At Matrix HR, our partnerships with Indigenous communities are more than just business ventures—they are commitments to fostering sustainable growth, cultural preservation, and economic independence. Each of our Joint Ventures (JVs) represents a unique collaboration designed to create lasting change. Through our JVs with Métis and First Nations communities, we work side by side to provide employment opportunities, skills training, and revenue-sharing models that contribute to both economic reconciliation and cultural empowerment.
Our journey with the Métis Settlements Development Corporation in Alberta began with a shared vision: to create long-term employment opportunities for Métis people in the industrial, commercial, and construction sectors. This Joint Venture focuses on integrating Métis workers into large-scale projects while preserving the cultural heritage of the Métis people.
The Impact:
Together with the Métis Settlements, we are building more than just infrastructure—we are building a future where economic and cultural empowerment thrive in harmony.

The Impact:
Through this partnership, we are proud to walk alongside the Gitga’at people as they build a brighter, more sustainable future for themselves and future generations.

At Matrix HR, we believe that economic reconciliation is about more than jobs, it's about creating opportunities that allow communities to thrive on their own terms. Each of these Joint Ventures represents a partnership built on trust, respect, and a shared commitment to creating lasting, positive change. Whether it's through employment, training, or community investment, we are proud to stand with our Indigenous partners as we build a stronger, more resilient future together.
