As we move beyond International Women’s Day, a global moment dedicated to honouring the achievements of women and advocating for gender equity, it remains crucial to reflect on the ongoing challenges and opportunities that marginalized women face—particularly Indigenous women entrepreneurs.

These accomplishments are not mere statistics; they represent tangible progress towards economic empowerment and community development, breaking cycles of financial instability, food insecurity, and gender-based violence while fostering self-sufficiency and resilience. Now, though, we stand on the brink of discontinuation, with no long-term, sustainable commitment from the government. I can’t help but feel a sense of urgency and apprehension.
