Community Futures Visions North

Today, we are incredibly grateful to observe National Indigenous Peoples Day.

Our Community Futures region is unique because it spans a massive geographic area of northern Saskatchewan. We are fortunate to live, travel, and work alongside entrepreneurs across Treaty Territories 5, 6, 6A, 8, and 10—spaces that are the traditional lands of the Woodland Cree, Denesuline, and Métis peoples.

Every day, we hear ideas from folks who are strengthening their communities through the power of local business. Northern entrepreneurship requires a special kind of resilience, whether navigating immense distances, seasonal roads, or fly-in access.

With a mandate to support all entrepreneurs in our region, we don't take this lightly. Guided by a board of directors that truly reflects the communities we serve, our commitment to the Truth & Reconciliation Commission’s Call to Action #92 is built directly into our structure, and the daily work of our team.

We are honored to play a part in fostering equitable access to business support, funding, and advice across the North.
