We are celebrating 25 years of empowering and inspiring Métis entrepreneurs in Saskatchewan at the Clarence Campeau Development Fund.

To help commemorate this achievement, we have our CEO, Pam Larson, as a guest on the podcast speaking to us about the milestones achieved and the exciting new partnerships to come.
