    The Call for Proposals for Canada Summer Jobs 2017 program is now open. Canada Summer Jobs is a Government of Canada initiative. It delivers funding for not-for-profit organizations, public sector employers and small businesses with 50 or fewer full-time employees to create summer jobs for students between the ages of 15 and 30. Providing support to Indigenous organizations is a priority of this program, so I encourage you to distribute this information to the members of your communities and colleagues within your organization. The period to apply for Canada Summer Jobs closes on February 3rd, 2017.
     
    Additional information on the program and application process can be found below:
