MLTC career tour focuses on trades and education
Meadow Lake Tribal Council (MLTC) is hosting a job fair for nine local First Nation Communities.
Chris Mazuren, organizer of the MLTC job fair, told meadowlakeNOW the council is committed and obligated to all nine nations.
“Some of the industries collecting resumes will be the mining, oil, power and forestry sector, heavy equipment jobs, we have [the] Fort McKay group of companies coming across the ice route to land in Clearwater and coming down to Flying Dust,” he said.
Mazuren noted he’s received feedback on past events. There were some requests for jobs in eco-tourism, farming innovation or sport fishing. Others expressed concern against environmentally destructive industries such as potash, uranium or clearcutting.
