Aiding Indigenous Peoples Recruitment in Canada to Gain Vital Work Skills

Canada is one of the fastest-growing countries in the world in terms of the economy. While it is true that the middle class plays a vital role in gaining this achievement, there are still a lot of indigenous people that are considerably being left underrepresented. These people struggle to find jobs, so the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations (CAFN), together with Yukon Literacy Coalition, Yukon College, and the help of the Canadian Government are teaming up together in a new project to aid up to 250 Indigenous Peoples Recruitment to gain personalized learning and training, and work experience throughout different communities.

The name of this project is The DänTsʼänānän (a blessing for certain skills) Program

This project will be funded by the Canadian Government under the Skills Partnership Funds (SPF). Larry Bagnell, member of the Parliament of Yukon, and on behalf of The Honourable Patty Hajdu, Minister of Employment, Workforce Development and Labour, made the official announcement stating that $7.5 million will be donated by the Canadian Government for this entire project.

The indigenous people of Canada are by far the fastest-growing population in the country. With the help of this project, Canada’s Indigenous Peoples Recruitment will be able to find more befitting jobs for their skills.
