Indigenous Woman in Business 2026 – Thank You

On behalf of CKRZ 100.3 FM — the Voice of the Grand — it is truly our honour to celebrate the incredible Indigenous Women in Business who were nominated by our community.

To every woman who was nominated, and to our outstanding finalists and grand winner, Kelsey Powless of Powless + Co. — congratulations. Your dedication, creativity, and entrepreneurial
spirit are inspiring the next generation of Indigenous business leaders.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to our community members whose nominations and votes made this campaign such a success. Your engagement shows just how much we value and uplift our
local women in business.

A very special thank you to Flowers by Leenie’s and Sue’s Affordable Flowers & Gifts for their beautiful donated bouquets and gifts — your generosity helped us honour these women in a
meaningful way.

We also gratefully acknowledge Two Rivers Community Development Centre and Rachel Martin for their continued support of Indigenous entrepreneurship in our region.

And an honourable thank you to Chief Sherri-Lynn Hill for her leadership, encouragement, and unwavering commitment to uplifting our community and the incredible women within it.

Finally, thank you to our dedicated staff here at CKRZ who worked behind the scenes to bring this campaign to life.

Today we celebrate not just success — but strength, vision, and community.

Nya:weh. Thank you.
