Publications Database

Welcome to the new Schulich Peer-Reviewed Publication Database!

The database is currently in beta-testing and will be updated with more features as time goes on. In the meantime, stakeholders are free to explore our faculty’s numerous works. The left-hand panel affords the ability to search by the following:

  • Faculty Member’s Name;
  • Area of Expertise;
  • Whether the Publication is Open-Access (free for public download);
  • Journal Name; and
  • Date Range.

At present, the database covers publications from 2012 to 2020, but will extend further back in the future. In addition to listing publications, the database includes two types of impact metrics: Altmetrics and Plum. The database will be updated annually with most recent publications from our faculty.

If you have any questions or input, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Abstract The path toward economic reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous populations in Canada is a complex and vital journey that requires careful consideration of historical injustices and contemporary challenges. This paper focuses on the role of public procurement in addressing economic disparities and strengthening the nation-to-nation relationship between the Government of Canada and Indigenous communities. It provides an overview of public procurement's strategic importance, analyzes Indigenous federal procurement data from 2009 to May 2023 to identify trends and areas for improvement, and presents insights from a 2023 Indigenous procurement survey. Key findings emphasize the need to align Indigenous business capacities with procurement activities, promote inclusivity, and establish effective communication and mentorship programs. Implementing these recommendations can advance economic reconciliation and promote fairness within Canadian society.
