MARCH 2026 share from non-Indigenous developers,” Cody observes. “At Indigenous Iron, we’re building toward full Indigenous ownership and control – rooted in our inherent rights and strengths— with a robust employment base drawn from First Nations communities. That way, we can lead and execute these projects ourselves.” From that position of strength, he sees two paths: partnering with First Nations as a fully capable Indigenous prime contractor on major projects, and potentially becoming a shared asset for the host Nations themselves. He points to MST Development Corp – which is a proud partnership of the Musqueam Indian Band, Squamish Nation, and Tsleil-Waututh Nation – as a model of Indigenous-led development scale in the Lower Mainland. “What we would like to see is if we can grow and scale sufficiently, perhaps one day all three host nations can integrate Indigenous Iron as a key partner in their capital buildings development programs through the MSTA framework. That would be an incredibly rewarding milestone for our partnership and for everyone involved.”
