By Our People, For Our People
Okimaw isn’t just rides – it’s relatives helping relatives move with safety, dignity, and care.
Founded in 2025 by Harry Hensen & Zuhaib Jahangir, Okimaw began when we saw Elders missing dialysis appointments due to unreliable transport. Today, our fleet of 50+ vehicles serves various communities across Saskatchewan, but our heart remains the same: Indigenous-led solutions for Indigenous needs.
