About Us
| Our Story |
| The Whitecap Development Corporation exists due to the vision of its sole shareholder, Whitecap Dakota First Nation. The Chief and Council recognized that increasing wealth and opportunity for the community and securing future prosperity would require making investments that would deliver profits and economic benefits over the long term. They made that vision a reality by incorporating the Whitecap Development Corporation in 1990.
The Whitecap Dakota First Nation has always benefited from forming partnerships, in 1882 Chief Whitecap assisted John Lake in forming the colony that would eventually become Saskatoon. Now Saskatoon is our closest neighbor and our primary market. The Whitecap Development Corporation continues this tradition by putting a strong emphasis on developing partnerships that bring the right combination of skill and experience for successful investments. The Corporation has used this strategy to complete several major projects that continue to produce financial benefits for our partners and substantial economic growth within the Whitecap Community. |
