Native Canadian Centre of Toronto

Since 1962 the Native Canadian Centre of Toronto has been a key meeting place for all people, of all nations, from across Canada and all over the world.  As Toronto’s oldest Indigenous organization and one of the original Friendship Centres, the NCCT provides social, recreational, cultural and spiritual services for the Indigenous community and visitors alike, including language classes. Located on the first floor, is the Cedar Basket Gift Shop, featuring Indigenous-owned artists and businesses who have exclusive distribution through the store and online.

Many business owners who have products in the Centre’s gift shop graduated from the centre’s Indigenous BEST (Business and Entrepreneurship Skills Training) program. Since it started in 2018, over 250 participants have graduated and  over 150 have gone on to start new businesses in Toronto and across Canada.
