Economic Development

Keewaytinook Okimakanak’s Economic Development Advisor works closely with First Nations to develop initiatives which are appropriate to the socio-economic, cultural, and geographical environment of each First Nation. The priority is to increase business skills and knowledge in member communities.

Current initiatives:

  • development of an all-season road north of Red Lake
  • new opportunities in eco-tourism
  • mapping of traditional land-use pursuits
  • small scale hydro generation
