WHO WE ARE

About Niipaawi Strategies

Our History

In Michif, “Niipaawi” means “Stand Up!”. Niipaawi Strategies was founded by Cam Holmstrom in that proactive spirit, stepping out as an Indigenous-owned and operated government and public relations firm to support clients from all walks of live to stand up and be heard. As a proud Red River Métis, Cam has spent his career standing up to make our communities and nation better, one client at a time.

We are in a new age of engagement, consultation, and collaboration between all levels of government, Indigenous nations, the business sector, and communities across the country. There has never been a more important time to stand up and be part of the conversations happening all around us.

Niipaawi Strategies has a combined 50 years of experience, working on both the political and government relations sides of these conversations. We have continually seen the importance of standing up and being heard. Society, business, policy, and the law are moving ahead, and it’s increasingly important to be a part of those conversations. We strive to provide the highest level of professional service to meet your needs. We stand behind our values and bring them into the work that we do for you. As you stand up, we are here to support you and help you achieve your goals.
