    • Dawn Francois and Julie John – Skwlāx te Secwepemcúl̓ecw
      Nov 13 2025

      Councillor Dawn Francois likes to tell the story of how she discovered the First Nations Infrastructure Institute. And how it started a path that could pay big dividends for her community of Skwlāx te Secwepemcúl̓ecw (Little Shuswap Lake Indian Band), in British Columbia.

      In this conversation, she is joined by fellow councillor Julie John, to talk about infrastructure needs and the value to community.

      Recorded at the Leading the Way 8 conference in Markham, Ontario in October 2025.

    • Greg Diemer – CFO, Tsawout First Nation
      Nov 13 2025

      "Show me the money" made for a great movie line, but it's also a common refrain in many First Nations communities planning infrastructure projects.

      Greg Diemer, CFO for Tsawout First Nation knows all about capital financing. Where a Band can find it, and where it can't.

      Particularly challenging is when a First Nation can't get infrastructure financing if a significant part of the population is non-Indigenous.

      He spoke with host Richard Perry at the Leading the Way 8 conference in October 2025.
