Citizens' Business Development

Are you a Citizen of McMurray Métis and an artisan, service provider, tourism operator, or business owner working within the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo?

McMurray Métis is building a comprehensive database of businesses owned by McMurray Métis Citizens to better understand, support, and strengthen our local Métis business community.

This initiative is led by our Community Development Services Department, working in collaboration with Discover Wood Buffalo, to help identify the needs, strengths, and opportunities of Citizen-owned businesses.

The information collected will support the development of targeted business support, mentorship opportunities, and future initiatives, while continuing to promote and market Métis-owned businesses through our website, social media, and other communications.

By completing this form, you are helping us shape a Métis-focused business support ecosystem that reflects where our entrepreneurs are today and what they need to grow and succeed.
