Major Concerns for Canadas Northwestern Territories

To solve the shrinking population and already small population issue the Northwest Territories has decided to look for recruits. The government has come up with a plan to â€Å"attract 2,000 more residents over the next five years, to help grow the territorys economy.† (â€Å"N.W.T. Aims to Attract 2,000 to Territory1†) This plan seems to have very good promise since there is a lot to be attracted to in the Northwest Territories. Aside form the cold temperatures there is a surplus of job opening and offering, there is plenty of land and space, resources have yet to be exploited and as mentioned before there are the northern lights and plenty of adventurous activities. The government hopes that at least 20% of the 2000 residents â€Å"will be students who leave the territory for post-secondary education coming back to live and work.† (â€Å"With Population Shrinking†1) The government also has hopes to â€Å"improve its immigrant nominee program† (â⠂¬Å"With Population Shrinking†1), which will help eliminate fly-in/fly-out workers. The potential for economic growth is very promising. In a time where a good portion of economies are taking a hit, this is the perfect opportunity for people to move and take advantage of the Northwest territories small population and weak economy. Many people struggle to find jobs and if they move there is a good chance they could land their dream job instead of a fall back dream.
