Strength in Numbers: Doing business Nation to Nation
Description

On September 15, 2021, an historic announcement was made involving the first of its kind business partnership. Suncor and eight Indigenous Communities: Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation, Chipewyan Prairie First Nation, Fort McMurray First Nation, Fort Chip Metis, Fort McKay Metis Nation, McMurray Metis, Willow Lake Metis Nation and Conklin Metis Local #193, announced a partnership and ownership in a northern pipeline. The partnership is called Astisiy and was made possible with the financial guarantee of the Alberta Indigenous Opportunities Corporation. This nation to nation pipeline ownership with Suncor provides long-term sustainability for communities well into the future.

Join the leaders of this project in a frank discussion on how nations can work together to move common business interests forward and how to create future partnerships that will sustain communities into the future.
