Animikii uses as a guide the Anishinaabe Seven Grandfather Teachings, which include love, truth and respect.

These values help inform the company's day-to-day decisions but also its longer-term goals, like bringing more Indigenous people into the technology sector, and using technology to support Indigenous economic development.

It was a slow path to growth for the company, which was a one-man show for years, with Ward working from home while raising a young family, and his wife joining the business full-time later on. Among Animikii’s remote workers is chief impact and communications officer Ian Capstick, who calls himself a white settler and lives in Montreal.

Capstick acknowledged that from a technological standpoint, it can be difficult for some people in more remote areas to work from home. The company has policies regarding the extra costs of supporting a remote worker with these challenges, he said: “We cross each of those bridges on an individualized basis.”

“White people need not apply”

Acceptable racism apparently.

That’s racist. You should hire based on merit.
