Corporate Structure

ACD was established under a limited partnership structure with Ahtahkakoop Cree Nation being the “limited partner” and Ahtahkakoop Cree Developments Ltd. being the “general partner”. Under the partnership, ACD, through its Board of Directors, controls the business operations of ACD, conducts all economic development and business activity, and acts as the management organization for the investment holding of the Nation.

As an added means of strengthening its corporate structure and to ensure political stability, Ahtahkakoop Cree Nation interposed a Trust between the Nation as represented by the Chief and Council and the corporation of ACD.

The Trust provides assurances that ACD’s structures, authorities, and mandates will not change in cases where leadership changes occur within the Nation. The Trust ensures the assets of the Corporation are safeguarded and protected at all times.

The following is ACD’s Organizational Flow Chart.
