The B.C. government and First Nations have been quarreling for centuries over fair common ground that satisfies both parties. The dispute between the government and native people is over “government support for aboriginal rights and titles to lands” as well as revenue sharing; however, B.C. Premier, Christy Clark, began the All Chiefs Summit with opening remarks acknowledging the failing ties between the parties but ensuring upcoming progress and negotiation.

With decades of continual dissatisfaction and irritation, there seems to be a glimpse of hope in this relationship. The disclosure of this proposal comes external factors that may favor or hinder an organization’s business model. For instance, a loosening of regulations and improvement in relationships with native people is anticipated. Downfalls to this attempt at reconciliation are new, stricter regulations and further impairment to the relationship with First Nations. As for reference, Metro Modular Homes is a company that  has been “supplying manufactured and modular homes throughout British Columbia for over thirty six years.” This business’s customer band is largely based with First Nations. With a positive outcome from the issue, the company and customer relationship will continue to flourish; however, new regulations may arise thus preventing business and trade between specific peoples. In the case of an unfortunate outcome, First Nations may prefer not to execute transactions with people other than their own kind. Thus, in Metro Modular Homes’ business model, this issue would impact the customer segments and relationships components of the company.
