Community Economic Development

Telephone 1-705-356-1621 Fax 1-705-356-1740
Community Economic Development Officer Jon Cada ext. 2223   Email joncada@mississaugi.com
Community Economic Development Clerk Tammy King ext. 2260 Email tammyking@mississaugi.com

Mississauga First Nation's strategic plan calls for the Community Economic Development Officer (CEDO) to support community and social development mandates by linking economic opportunities to MFN's social, cultural and environmental needs as well as the community's wants and desires. Achieving the community's goals for self-reliance include generating sustainable economic growth, community control and increasing the capacity of MFN band members, both on-reserve and off-reserve to meaningfully participate in the local and regional economy.

The CEDO's mandate requires diligent networking and relationship building while also addressing needs for program funding that sustains department operations. Other activities they are involved with include connecting individuals with training and employment supports, business support for existing firms as well as  start-ups, resource management supports and other related activities. The department also responds to inquiries of the First Nation's leadership and its membership to investigate and explore economically sustainable ventures.
MFN's CEDO is a certified Technician Aboriginal Economic Developer by the Council for the Advancement of Native Development Officers (CANDO). This ensures your CEDO is connected to resources, projects and programs across the country. MFN's CEDO is also able to bridge these opportunities to local individuals, businesses and organizations.

​A fully accessible loop trail is available for users off the existing connector trail. This trail is AODA compliant and features learning zones and opportunities for users to learn more about the shared history between Blind River and Mississauga First Nation. Funding comes from Great Lakes Waterfront Trail, Trans-Canada Trail, NOHFC & Cameco.
