Northern Ontario Summer Jobs For Students

There will be 42 hundred jobs created for students this summer in Northern Ontario.

The program is open to students between the ages of 15 and 30 who are planning to return to school in the fall.

The summer jobs program is part of the Open Ontario plan to help every student succeed in the future.

Minister of Northern Development Michael Gravelle says the programs can help students gain valuable experience and enrich their learning.

Gravelle also says they provide valuable mentoring experiences for employers and contribute to building a strong skills base for the north's economy.

Employers in Northern Ontario have until April 30th to apply for the subsidy.
