A program that has supported more than 600-thousand summer job opportunities for young people since 2019 is now accepting applications. The Canada Summer Jobs Program is back for 2027.
The feds say the key to building Canada’s future workforce is ensuring people between the ages of 15 and 30 have opportunities to gain skills, experience and confidence in the labour market.
Eligible not-for-profits, public sector employers and those in the private sector with 50 or fewer full-time employees, can apply until December 3rd.
Officials say priority will be given to jobs in construction, environmental and climate-related activities, developing digital skills, not-for-profits that support underserved communities, and more.
