Meet Bruce Buffalo, Founder of Mamawapowin


Mamawapowin Technology Society is on a mission to give the community of Maskwacis something millions of other Canadians take for granted: its own high-speed network.


The first part of the network is up and running. Mamawapowin wants to expand the coverage to include the three other Nations in Maskwacis.


This connectivity is a crucial step in developing employment and cultural opportunities for all four of the Nations in the Maskwacis Territory.
