Every year on June 21, Cameco proudly recognizes National Indigenous Peoples Day. Our northern Saskatchewan sites celebrated by inviting guests from local communities to enjoy traditional food and activities. Athabasca Catering provided a special menu including walleye, pork neckbones and stew with bannock. In addition to the feast, participants enjoyed displays of traditional crafts, tools and artifacts. Activities included drumming, oral storytelling and Métis square dancing.

Leading up to National Indigenous Peoples Day on June 21, we'd like to introduce you to a few of Cameco's many Indigenous partners who contribute to Cameco's success and give back to their communities. Apprenticing as a pipefitter at Cameco’s Cigar Lake mine has been a perfect fit for Spencer Pacquette. “One of the things I’m really grateful for is working with experienced people on site,” says the product of Fond du Lac. “The people here are really helpful.” #NIPD2024

Leading up to National Indigenous Peoples Day on June 21, we'd like to introduce you to a few of Cameco's many Indigenous partners who contribute to Cameco's success and give back to their communities. Since retiring from a 33-year career with Cameco, Pinehouse’s Frank Natomagan has embraced a new role as site Elder for the Key Lake and McArthur River operations. "I didn’t realize how much I missed the people at site, so when this opportunity came, I felt it would be a great chance to re-engage and be back with family.” #NIPD2024
