Fran Rogers is a member of Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation and the founder of The Bead Lodge in Grande Prairie, Alberta. In this video, she shares how selling beads from her basement grew through markets, powwows, and the Fire Circle program into a 3,000 sq ft retail space carrying authentic beadwork, moccasins, textiles, and artwork by local Indigenous makers. Guided by matriarchal teachings, Fran built more than a store: a welcoming hub where women, youth, and emerging artists can see there is space for them.

Barriers to Indigenous economic development still limit access to capital and opportunity. At the Rural Development Indigenous Partnerships panel in PEI, NACCA CEO, Shannin Metatawabin highlighted the path forward. "Indigenous Financial Institutions are working to remove barriers by keeping capital in communities, supporting Indigenous entrepreneurs, and building long-term prosperity. When capital flows, projects gain committed partners with deep community ties which builds solid economic foundations and stronger partners in development."

Dolly Kruger is a member of the snpinkʷtn Penticton Indian Band and the founder of SilverSky Cradle & Casket in the South Okanagan, British Columbia. In this video, she shares how training as one of the only women in carpentry school, and the loss of her eldest son in 2011, led her to hand-build sacred, culturally relevant caskets, urns, and newborn cradle boards for Indigenous families. "If you tell me I can't do it, I'll find a way to do it" — Dolly's vision is to grow, employ Indigenous people, and mentor the youth watching her lead.
