The CWB Association is thrilled to collaborate with Skills/Compétences Canada on a special podcast series. This year, we are excited to interview the Skills Canada Executive Directors from across Canada. Tune in as we explore their skills journey and commitment to promoting skilled trades in their provinces and territories!

What happens when a community desperately needs tradespeople but is only accessible by plane? Katie Mooney, Executive Director from Skills Canada Yukon, shares the unique realities of nurturing trades talent in northern Canada. Beyond the practical aspects of trades development, Katie shares insights into northern living—the exceptional work-life balance, the immediate access to wilderness, and the tight-knit communities that make the territories uniquely appealing despite the harsh winters and infrastructure limitations.
