"The Creator has given us the responsibility to protect the lands on which we were placed. We are to take care of and nurture everything that the Creator has given as a trust and duty to future generations of Pikangikum people.” - From Pikangikum People Sustaining Our Livelihood on the Land"


Our Initiatives:

Pikangikum Hotel and WeeSeeNeaGamic Restaurant

Our First Nation operates a Small Business Centre that houses our own hotel (10 rooms), a 60-seat restaurant and other offices including those of Whitefeather Forest Management Corporation.

The centre was completed in 1994. Both the restaurant and hotel are successful businesses and provide jobs for a dozen Pikangikum members. The hotel is often booked to capacity, and the dining room is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, seven days a week.

The hotel/restaurant businesses provide much needed lodgings and meal services for the ever-increasing number of guests including visitors, officials and businesses working with us in our community. Our dining facilities operate both for our guests and for community members. The restaurant is able to cater smaller feasts and banquets for important occasions.
