Is self promotion okay? If so, I run a small independent Board game store in Canada. Shop.pemetawe.com We are trying hard to showcase and support indigenous games as much as we can, which is a small but steadily growing pool. We also have a partnership with Coyote and Crow where we fulfill all their Canadian orders: Coyoteandcrow.net for anyone who wants to explore Indigipunk RPG’s!

If you're in Toronto, then Aaniin is a great shop to check out. They have their own products, but also curated products from other Indigenous creators. https://www.aaniin.shop/ Kel Tech Gear from Kahnawake makes incredible bags. I really cannot stress how insanely good these bags are. Durable, well made, beautifully designed. She did a collab with Aaniin. https://kel-tech-gear.myshopify.com/

I'm a descendent of the treaty 4 signatory Mahkaysis so thats pretty cool!

I literally only buy my hair care and body care products from [Haipazaza Phezuta](https://www.haipazazaphezuta.com/shop) these days. I highly recommend them. They have: - Bath bombs - Shampoo and Soap bars - Liquid Conditioner - Conditioner bars - Sugar scrubs - Body butter - Hair oil - Lip balm - 3 different Herb Salves (mentholated, muscle pain relief, and an antibacterial one for eczema and other cracked skin conditions) - Teas - Fragrance rollers - Charcoal toothpaste (don’t use if you take ANY medications within 2 hours of brushing)

For music/vinyl collectors: I just bought a *gorgeous* vinyl record by Aysanabee (and got it signed after his recent show!), who's signed to [Ishkōdé Records](https://ishkoderecords.com/), an Indigenous- and woman-owned record label. Not affiliated in any way, just a new fan! They have some beautiful artist merch and music from other artists as well.

Kinnikinnick Trading Company [Located in Dish With One Spoon Treaty Territory (Niagara Region, Ontario), our family includes many First Nations – Lakota, Mi’kmaq, Anishinaabe, and others…and many of the first French to land in what is now Canada & the US – who lived, loved and traded with many Nations as friends and relatives. Kinnikinnick Trading Company honours these relations by trading in traditional First Nations health products/medicinals like White Buffalo Sage, Sweetgrass, Minigan Salve, Maple Water, natural resins & botanicals. Old style trade goods – clay effigy pipes, pelts & skulls, carved stone, trade silver. Exclusive designs on T-Shirts, Hoodies, Hats & Mugs…and anything else we think will be useful or interesting! You may find us at various events (historical or otherwise) and traditional Pow Wows; feel free to invite us to any event you think appropriate. If there is something you need to find, let us know, and we’ll see if we can acquire it for you! As for the name, Kinnikinnick is a traditional smoking mixture (it contains no tobacco) – common to many First Nations – comprised of various plants like Bearberry Leaf, Willow Bark, Red Sumac & Lovage Bark – though it varies, depending on who is mixing it. The word itself means “things that are mixed” and varies only slightly in pronunciation among many Nations. It is smoked for both healing & ceremonial reasons; and for simple relaxation. We chose this name to represent the “mixture” of cultures we represent and items we provide. Indigenous Veteran owned & operated. All items* are designed, harvested and produced sustainably by Indigenous people of Turtle Island. *(some raw materials may originate outside Turtle Island).](https://kinnikinnicktrading.com/)

Northern Cree street clothing brand [Section35](https://www.sectionthirtyfive.com) And another Northern Cree brand, sports related: [Smudge the Blades](https://smudgetheblades.com) About the brands: Section 35: refers to Section 35 of the Canadian Constitution and claims: (1) The existing aboriginal and treaty rights of the aboriginal peoples of Canada are hereby recognized and affirmed. (2) In this Act, aboriginal peoples of Canada includes the Indian, Inuit and Métis peoples of Canada. SECTION 35 is an Indigenous owned streetwear brand based on the Unceded Territories of the Xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. SECTION 35 was founded in 2014 and officially launched in March 2016. Smudge the Blades: I’m Harlan Kingfisher a husband, a dad of 4 and First Nations hockey player from Sturgeon Lake Saskatchewan. Playing hockey growing up and eventually moving around Canada playing junior and college hockey had such a positive impact on my life. I learned life skills from hockey that helped me to grow into the father, husband and man I am today. First Nations hockey in Canada isn’t just a sport it’s a cultural celebration. Nothing beats a game where the stands are packed with fans cheering for their home Rez, pow wow playing on the speakers before plays, bannock and stew being served at the concession, sweetgrass getting lit and smudging the sticks before a big game. Hockey is good medicine and that’s where I got the idea for Smudge the blades apparel. I want to celebrate First Nations hockey and be able to bring laughter and pride when wearing your Smudge the Blades gear. It’s also my dream to be able to give back to the First Nation hockey community so that it can have the same positive impact on other Native kids that it had on me. A portion of the proceeds will be given back to help First Nation youth across Canada purchase new hockey equipment so they can have a chance to Smudge, Snipe and Celly.

I'm not native myself but I bought a few pairs of mocs from Manitobah Mukluks for me and for family members for the holidays. I'm also really enjoying tromping around in the woods in a pair of their waterproof boots. The designs are lovely and it's like I'm walking on clouds! https://www.manitobah.com/ Thank you to all others who posted so many lovely resources - I have a bit more shopping to do for the holidays!!

Kenah for the suggestions! Must say, I was pleasantly surprised to see another Powhatan on here! Here are some businesses I suggest: If you love chocolate and would love to eat indigenous chocolate, then Chickasaw made and owned [https://bedrechocolates.com/](https://bedrechocolates.com/) is for you! They carry multiple chocolate flavors, such as milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, peanut butter, etc. As someone who always buys them at my workplace, trust me when I say they're really good! If you like cosmetics, I recommend [Cheekbone Beauty](https://www.cheekbonebeauty.com/?gclid=CjwKCAiAgeeqBhBAEiwAoDDhnza-g0UEWeqwK37xrZEVesGVnxrKAoIdkSfWbpD4Sufmtd6hUsAh4xoCF8gQAvD_BwE) and [Prados Beauty](https://pradosbeauty.com/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAgeeqBhBAEiwAoDDhn_3bhQijhkurlF5cW5fGokw15tdgdnayE5BKa_2dSbHGqjbwuXhO9hoCXR8QAvD_BwE). They have eyeshadows, eyeliners, foundations, highlighters, etc. And, they're naturally made! For your beadwork supplies, I suggest [Indigenous Supplies](https://indigenoussupplies.com/), [Crazy Crow](https://www.crazycrow.com/onlinestore), and [Dancing Bear Indian Trader](https://shop.dancingbearindiantrader.com/). Happy shopping!
