Chi Mino Ozhitoowin is owned by these seven First Nations. The wider Waasigan partnership spans nine — Wabigoon Lake Ojibway Nation and Lac des Mille Lacs First Nation take part through their own agreements — all sharing in the employment, business opportunity, and ownership agreements the line creates.
