Indigenous Roots

Fontaine has always been a trail-blazer, and is leading the way in his newest business venture, Indigenous Roots, a joint venture medical cannabis company in partnership with The Cronos Group. This business, the first licensed majority Indigenous owned medical cannabis producer, is being led by Mr. Fontaine. It is focused on Indigenous ownership and operation, providing jobs to First Nations, and addressing under-served citizen’s patient needs.

Through the Indigenous Roots partnership, Cronos will provide land for the initial 30,000 square foot flagship facility (Spring 2017), license, intellectual property and engineering expertise. This unique business model is a platform for opportunity through expansion permits with existing licensed producers, providing an expedited path for investment, operation and participation in the medical cannabis field.

Indigenous Roots mission is to provide First Nation people with safe, accessible, high quality medicinal cannabis—by First Nation people, for First Nation people in the process of remaining true to Indigenous values and beliefs. The business also envisions creating a nationally and globally recognized brand of medical cannabis, owned and operated by First Nations.
