ASINIIKAA MINING AND CONSTRUCTION LTD. IS NORTHERN ONTARIO’S FULL SERVICE
INDIGENOUS-OWNED AND LED MINING AND CONSTRUCTION GROUP OF COMPANIES.

ABOUT ASINIIKAA

The term Asiniikaa translates from the Ojibwe language meaning “many rocks”.

This distinct and meaningful word Asiniikaa provides extremely significant
meaning for the Anishinaabe people along with us as a company.  We recognize and
value the teachings that were provided to us when choosing the name Asiniikaa
and honour these teaching in a reciprocal way.  As a company, we respect and
understand that it is our duty to honour the relationships that we form all the
while shaping the landscape in a good way so that the future, the next seven
generations may prosper in what the rocks – Asiniikaa provide.

WHY ASINIIKAA?

Understanding that we are ALL Treaty People, we live and work in the Robinson
Huron Treaty and the Robinson Superior Treaty of 1850.  With this understanding,
we must acknowledge and honour the land that we are on.  It is incumbent upon us
to respect these lands and the Indigenous people who were here long before us.

Indigenous people often have profound and special connections to, and
identification with, lands and waters and these are tied to their physical,
spiritual, cultural, and economic well-being. They also have valuable
traditional knowledge and experience in managing the environment in a
sustainable manner. We honour and respect the perspectives that First Nations
people hold towards their rights, interests, connections to lands and waters,
and the perspectives of traditional practices. We understand the cultural and
traditional connection that First Nations people have towards preserving and
sustaining their land for their people of today and the seven generations that
are to come. 

Our approach to relationship building with First Nation communities is grounded
in respect. We respect and understand the rights of Indigenous Peoples. We
respect cultural differences. We understand and appreciate the ongoing impacts
of colonialism and its influence on engagement and partnership.
