About Community
Glooscap First Nation, located near Hantsport in the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia, is one of the province’s most progressive and business-focused Mi’kmaq communities. With a population of approximately 400 members, Glooscap’s prime location along major transportation routes between Halifax and the Valley positions it perfectly for regional trade, tourism, and investment. Despite its small size, Glooscap has earned a national reputation for innovation, governance excellence, and community-driven economic success. The Nation’s business arm, Glooscap Ventures, manages a growing portfolio that includes retail, energy, fisheries, and hospitality. Its flagship development, the Glooscap Landing Commercial Centre, has become a model for Indigenous entrepreneurship, creating jobs and attracting partnerships from across Atlantic Canada. Glooscap’s continued investments in renewable energy, digital adoption, and youth training reflect a forward-looking strategy rooted in sustainability, cultural pride, and economic self-reliance. Glooscap First Nation demonstrates that reconciliation in action is achieved through collaboration and shared prosperity. By partnering with governments, corporations, and communities, Glooscap continues to drive innovation and opportunity—building an inclusive economy where success is measured not only in profits, but in progress for all.
