The winter trail system in the Labrador Straits will receive a boost through the Job Creation Partnership program with $52,211 in funding. Also, three individuals will gain valuable work experience with the Basque Whaler's Snowmobile Club.
Through this initiative, these individuals will be hired to complete maintenance of the winter trails system in the Labrador Straits, build an emergency warm-up cabin on the trail, and carry out promotional and safe-snowmobiling activities.
Non-profit community-based organizations, municipal governments and businesses partner with the Provincial Government to address local priority needs through the Job Creation Partnership program. Examples of potential partnership initiatives include maintenance and repairs to community infrastructure, such as town halls and churches; the beautification of public areas; and the staffing of businesses or organizations. In addition to in-kind or in-cash contributions from sponsors, Job Creation Partnership program funding is provided through direct contributions to sponsors or through the extension of Employment Insurance benefits for project participants.
