Bear Hills Casino & Travel Resort’s Post

51% of our staff is from Louis Bull Tribe and Maskwacis Nations. In our opinion, our entire opening team is AWESOME. But here's why that 51% number is so important... On average, 34% of employees of Host First Nation casinos are from the Host Nation. Of course, when Erika Bull-Giroux — the Director, Socio-Economic Development for Louis Bull Tribe at the time, and now the Executive Director of the Bear Hills Casino Society — heard this stat, she wanted us to aim for 44%. To open our casino with more than half of our employees being from Maskwacis is something we are very proud of. #maskwacis #alberta #indigenousemployment #indigenousowned #louisbulltribe
