How we verify Indigenous businesses
Every business included in this collection is individually researched. TryCanadian reviews publicly available evidence of Indigenous ownership or community ownership using official company information, Indigenous business directories, government records, corporate filings and reputable reporting.
Businesses for which current ownership cannot be established to TryCanadian's review standard are not included until stronger evidence becomes available.
What we look for:
- Documented Indigenous ownership/control.
- First Nation, Inuit or Métis community ownership.
- Reliable current sources.
- Confirmation the company still operates under the claimed ownership/entity.
Indigenous ownership independently reviewed by TryCanadian — this is not a third-party certification.
