Organizations, like @first_work, give Canadians the tools they need to find employment. Happy to sit down with First Work’s Executive Director, Akosua Alagaratnam, to hear about their work helping jobseekers in Don Valley West reach their full potential.

I met with representatives of local community groups to learn more about Employment Service Providers to learn more about what we can do to support individuals facing barriers to employment in accessing the training, resources, and networks needed to secure good, decent work

🇨🇦 Investing in our youth means investing in Canada’s future. At the Youth Career Summit in Toronto, I met with young Canadians eager to explore careers in fast-growing industries like green energy, tech, and hospitality. Their passion and determination never fail to inspire!
