First Nations Partnership

Built on Respect & Shared Prosperity

Tartisan’s relationship with Treaty #3 is grounded in genuine reciprocity. We’ve been engaged since 2007 because community trust and benefit-sharing matter to how we operate.

Our Partnership:

  • • Proven Trust: Treaty #3 Grand Council granted Canadian Arrow Mines (our subsidiary) the first-ever Great Earth Law authorization for a resource company.
  • • Long-Term Neighbors: Ongoing relationships with 4 neighboring communities (Naotkamegwanning, Northwest Angle #33 & #37, Onigaming) built on transparency and mutual benefit.
  • • Leadership Endorsement: Recognized by the Ogichidaa (Grand Chief) as a leader in First Nation relations.
