Economic Activity and Employment Sample Clauses

Economic Activity and Employment. In 1995-1996, the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development (DIAND) consulted with the Sahtu Dene and Metis on all economic development agreement initiatives in Sahtu communities. Sahtu First Nations continued to be full participants in the department's Community Economic Development Organization funding program. This program provides funding to individual First Nations which, in turn, fund activities addressing their economic and employment objectives. In May 1995, XXXXX undertook a national consultation process on the effectiveness of federal economic programming. The Department consulted the Sahtu Secretariat Incorporated (SSI) using a questionnaire and interviews. Most Sahtu Dene and Metis communities are interested in economic development opportunities and wish to work with oil and gas companies to build partnerships and gain training opportunities for northerners. Following the close of the central Mackenzie Valley oil and gas call for bids in March 1996, meetings were held in Sahtu Dene and Metis communities to highlight the results of the bids. An increase in oil and gas activity in future years is projected. Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWCSC) continued to advertise procurement opportunities on its Open Bidding Service and to meet the requirements of the Agreement by notifying regional associations and the SSI of procurement opportunities within the Sahtu Settlement Area. The Supply Policy Directorate provided policy advice and seminars to procurement officers to ensure that administrative procedures were in place for consistent evaluation of bids.
