We did a complete rebuild of the Saulteau First Nations’ website. This is the type of project we love to work on, because we want to really support the work that SFN is doing. Accessibility is essential in website development, and that was one of our focuses on this site—as well as a gorgeous and functional user experience.
We’re pleased to provide secure, reliable hosting for Saulteau First Nations and all their corresponding sites. This is provided through our state-of-the-art data center built on Treaty 8 territory in Edmonton Alberta.
Saulteau First Nations represents the Saulteaux (Anishinabe), Nehiyaw (Cree), and Mountain Dunne-Za (Beaver) people who have a long history that predates Treaty 8. Their vision is to be the Best Governed Nation, and they are always working towards this vision in every aspect.
During this project, it was a privilege to closely collaborate with their marketing manager.
There’s a lot of information on this site. While we were rebuilding, we needed to focus on both the rebuild and on simplifying the content and flow of the content.
Building websites like this one for SFN wasn’t just about graphics, content, and links. It was about reflecting a community’s priorities and meeting its members’ needs. To accomplish this, we needed to continuously be active listeners and grateful recipients of feedback.
Saulteau First Nations is a real leader in economic development. They have multiple businesses and they really support their members—such an amazing nation!
The result of the website rebuild is an eye-catching website that completely aligns with their brand guide. Most importantly, people can easily find the information they need.
We live, work, and gather on traditional, unceded, and treaty territories of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Peoples from coast to coast to coast. We’re committed to our collective responsibility to the original caretakers of this land and to listening, learning, and acting in ways that support reconciliation.
