Indigenous Knowledge

Join Alumni Tracy Primeau, BA ‘98, in a discussion about Indigenous Business and Leadership. Tracy Primeau is a shift manager at Bruce Power, and also member of many organizations – she is a member of the Board of Directors of Women in Nuclear Canada, Chair of the Women’s House Serving Bruce and Grey, Executive of the Kincardine Bulldogs Hockey Club and sits on two Municipality of Kincardine Council committees.

This discussion will cover topics such as common misconceptions, the seven Grandfather teachings, Indigenous business and leadership opportunities, and why the time is now.

Tracy Primeau’s goal when she applied to the Arts co-op program at the University of Waterloo was to become a history teacher. The applied nature of the program was attractive to the prospective student who had grown up in a hardworking blue-collar household in Kincardine, Ontario. “With sellable skills like computer programming and technical writing, along with co-op, you could finance your own education,” she says.
