Indigenous Ownership

In 2021, Clearwater proudly announced that we were 50% acquired by the newly formed Mi’kmaq Coalition. The Mi’kmaq Coalition was formed by Membertou, Miawpukek, Paqtnkek, Pictou Landing, Potlotek, Sipekne’katik, and We’koqma’q, seven Mi’kmaq communities in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador.  Representing the single largest investment in the seafood industry by any Indigenous group in Canada, we are incredibly proud of the impact this transaction has in benefiting Mi’kmaq communities in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador for generations to come. Check out our map below to see where each of the seven Mi’kmaq communities are located that make up the Coalition.

We proudly share Clearwater’s Mission Statement in Mi’kmaq language below.
