In Anishinaabe teachings, tonight’s lunar eclipse takes place during the eighth Grandmother Moon. Thimbleberry Moon is a protector of the circle of life and a guide to teachings from the Spirit World.

At NACCA, we see these teachings in action every day. Indigenous entrepreneurs are creating jobs, growing businesses, and strengthening their communities. We are proud to support them.

Congratulations to Relentless Mechanical who was this year's All Nations Trust Company Female Business of the Year Award Recipient!

🏆 Female Business of the Year Award Recipient: Relentless Mechanical

Relentless Mechanical has built a strong reputation across Northern British Columbia by providing expert heavy equipment troubleshooting, maintenance, and repair services. With over 13 years of industry experience, the company supports the forestry, construction, hydro, energy, and government sectors, helping keep critical equipment operating safely and efficiently.

Based in a region where logging remains a key economic driver, Relentless Mechanical has earned the trust of one of Western Canada's largest logging operations, along with numerous logging and construction companies throughout the area. Their expertise, reliability, and commitment to quality service have made them a valued partner in an industry facing a significant shortage of skilled heavy-duty field technicians.

Known for their dedication and strong work ethic, Relentless Mechanical routinely meets the demands of a rigorous schedule, often working long days to ensure clients receive the support they need when they need it most. As demand for their services continues to grow, the company remains focused on delivering dependable mechanical solutions throughout Prince George and surrounding communities while exploring opportunities for expansion within the construction sector.

👏 Congratulations to Relentless Mechanical on receiving the Female Business of the Year Award.

This achievement reflects exceptional leadership, perseverance, and success in a traditionally male-dominated industry, and serves as an inspiring example for future entrepreneurs.
