The Westbank First Nation Economic Development Commission is the first First Nation EDC in Canada. With a vision of being a healthy, business-oriented community that is economically self-sufficient, the EDC provides linkages between government, members, and businesses.
To ensure an increase in economic wealth for the community, and a sustainable increase in living standards that includes an increase in per capita income, the EDC also works to ensure opportunities exist for better education and health, as well as environmental protection and close connections to WFN's culture and traditions. Being more than just developing the reserves, the EDC also focuses on the Membership's voice and well-being.
