About Okimaw NEMT
Indigenous-Led Care on the Move
Transportation rooted in respect, reliability and reconciliation
Okimaw was founded by Mr. Zuhaib & Mr. Harry to address the transportation gaps facing First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities. More than just a ride service, we’re a bridge to healthcare, culture, and connection—rooted in respect, reliability, and reconciliation.
Every driver is trained in cultural safety and trauma-informed care because we believe your journey should honor your whole self: body, mind, and spirit.
