From Data to Action: Navigating Northwestern Ontario’s Labour Market
Our latest labour market report highlights a clear reality:

👉 The workforce is changing — but not in the same way across the region.

From Thunder Bay’s growth, to Kenora’s emerging workforce potential, to Rainy River’s declining labour supply, the challenges — and solutions — are local.

So what does this mean for you, your organization, and your community?

Join us for an engaging webinar where we’ll:
· Start with a high-level overview of the latest labour market report
· Transition into a panel discussion with regional experts to unpack what the data looks like on the ground
· Open the floor for audience Q&A — giving you the chance to ask questions and share your perspective

This is your opportunity to navigate the labour market with both data and real-world insight — and connect with partners from across Northwestern Ontario.

Whether you’re an employer, service provider, or community partner, this conversation is designed for you.

The webinar will take place on Wednesday, May 20 from2 PM - 3 PM EDT

Des données à l’action : naviguer le marché du travail du Nord-Ouest de l’Ontario

Notre plus récent rapport sur le marché du travail met en lumière une réalité claire:
👉 La main-d’œuvre est en train de changer — mais pas de la même façon partout dans la région.

De la croissance dans le district de Thunder Bay, au potentiel émergent de la main-d’œuvre dans le district de Kenora, jusqu’à la diminution de l’offre de travailleurs dans le district de Rainy River, les défis — et les solutions — sont locaux.

Alors, qu’est-ce que ça veut dire pour vous, votre organisation et votre communauté?
Joignez-vous à nous pour un webinaire dynamique où nous allons:
· Commencer avec un aperçu général des plus récents rapports sur le marché du travail
· Poursuivre avec une discussion en panel réunissant des experts régionaux pour décortiquer ce que les données veulent dire sur le terrain
· Ouvrir la discussion avec une période de questions-réponses — une occasion pour vous de poser vos questions et de partager votre point de vue

C’est votre chance de mieux comprendre le marché du travail en combinant données et réalités concrètes — et d’échanger avec des partenaires de partout dans le Nord-Ouest de l’Ontario.

Que vous soyez employeur, fournisseur de services ou partenaire communautaire, cette conversation est pour vous.
