Indigenous Leadership: Governance and Development Project

The premise of the work is that economic development stories need to be shared among those involved in economic development, both in the community where the economic development activities take place and in other communities looking to undertake economic development. [...] One of the long-term goals is to develop a set of resources that is Indigenous-led and available to Indigenous communities across the province and the country. [...] CCDF strongly believes in the power of Métis entrepreneurship to bring about positive change and is committed to supporting Métis businesses “every step of the way.” CCDF has a clear mission – to enhance the economic circumstances of Saskatchewan’s Métis. [...] In addition to not providing a representative to the CCDF board for an extended period, in 2019 the MN-S terminated the 2002 agreement with the Government of Saskatchewan. [...] In April 2022, an MOU was signed to revive and renew the 2002 Agreement and the negotiation of a new agreement for the governance and operation of the Fund is underway.
