Bear Paw Development Corporation is a private non-profit organization created for the purpose of administering programs to help improve regional economic conditions in Hill, Blaine, Liberty, Chouteau and Phillips Counties and the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations.

The Senator popped into UDAP Bear Spray Industries http://www.udap.com/ which distributes powerful pepper spray to fend off bear attacks, or for personal defense.

"With the outdoor economy we have in the state and the quality of life we have in the state and the schools we have in the state, I think it’s a real opportunity that people will move here, sometime move back here, and start their own business and add to our economy," said Sen. Jon Tester/D-Montana.

Tester added that there will be a forum called the Small Business Opportunity Workshop http://www.matr.net/article-69598.html on Feb. 16th in Billings to help grow small business in the state.
