Extractions: If the Yukon is the far north at its most accessible, the Northwest Territories is the region at its most uncompromising. Just three roads nibble at the edges of this almost unimaginably vast area, which, together with Nunavut, occupies a third of Canada's landmass. The Northwest Territories is about the size of India but contains only 60,000 people, almost half of whom live in or around Yellowknife. Unless you're taking the adventurous and rewarding Dempster Highway from Dawson City across the tundra to Inuvik, Yellowknife will probably feature on any trip to this territory, as it's the hub of the flight network servicing the area's widely dispersed communities.

Extractions: YELLOWKNIFE, NWT The Honourable Ethel Blondin-Andrew, Secretary of State for Children and Youth, on behalf of the Honourable Pierre S. Pettigrew, Minister of Human Resources Development Canada (HRDC), and the Honourable Charles Dent, Minister of Education, Culture and Employment (ECE), today signed the Canada-Northwest Territories Labour Market Development Agreement This significant agreement, scheduled for implementation on April 1, 1998, or a mutually agreed date thereafter, will enable the Northwest Territories (NWT) to assume an expanded role in the design and delivery of labour market development programs and services for unemployed Canadians in the NWT. Given the complex issues involved, ECE and HRDC have agreed that the actual implementation would be subject to a process that ensures an orderly transition and no interruption of service to the public. "This milestone agreement enables us to move forward with policies and programs tailored to meet the needs of the NWT labour market," said Minister Dent. "Our goal is to equip Canadians in the NWT with the skills and opportunities they need to be competitive in today's and tomorrow's economy." Today's agreement demonstrates the Government of Canada's commitment to withdraw from labour market training and to establish new partnerships with the provinces and territories for labour market development. These commitments were made in the February 1996 Speech from the Throne and in the Labour Market Development Proposal made to the provinces and territories in May 1996.

National Child Benefit - Northwest Territories Reinvestments reduce duplication and streamline efficiency, canada Customs and Department of Education,culture Employment Government of the northwest territories Box 1320 http://www.nationalchildbenefit.ca/ncb/maplinknwt.shtml
Extractions: Skip to content (access key: C) Skip to sidebar menu (access key: S) Programs Description of Reinvestments Map of Canada First Nations Reinvestments The Government of the Northwest Territories (NWT) continues to reinvest funds arising from the National Child Benefit in the NWT Child Benefit (NWTCB), which includes the Territorial Workers' Supplement. In order to reduce duplication and streamline efficiency, Canada Customs and Revenue Agency delivers the NWTCB for the NWT as an integrated payment with federal child benefits. While the reinvestment arising from the 1998-99 National Child Benefit continues to fund the NWTCB, the 1999 and subsequent increases to the National Child Benefit Supplement are directed to the Healthy Children Initiative. It is estimated that 4,400 children in almost 3,000 families receive the NWTCB every month. This cash benefit provides a maximum of $330 per child per year for families with income of $20,921 or less in the previous year. The Territorial Workers' Supplement provides families that have at least $3,750 in working income the previous year, with maximum benefits of $275 for the first child and $75 for the second; the actual benefit is based on income.
