Indigenous entrepreneurship: Making a business case for reconciliation

As a young girl, Jenn Harper visited the Toronto Eaton Centre many times. Although she loved shopping, Harper, who is now the CEO of Cheekbone Beauty, based in St. Catharines, Ont., said that "some of the things I remember were racism, like, people accusing us of stealing." Harper, who is Anishinaabe, is a member of the Northwest Angle #33 First Nation in Kenora, Ont., on the western edge of the province. Today her heritage is at the core of her cosmetics line, with sustainability a key feature.
