  • Greater Sudbury a Leading Destination in Northern Ontario
    For Immediate Release Greater Sudbury a leading destination in Northern Ontario Greater Sudbury continues to demonstrate strength in supporting education and employment success January 31, 2017 – Greater Sudbury should build on their role as a leader in education and skills enhancement – particularly for Indigenous and newcomer populations. That is the message coming out of the newest report from the Northern Projections: Human Capital Series, a partnership between Northern Policy Institute and Northern Ontario Workforce Planning Boards. The new report by Dr. Bahktiar Moazzami and James Cuddy found that Greater Sudbury is in a better position than any other census district in Northern Ontario to meet current and future skills requirements. Recent investments in post-secondary institutions in Greater Sudbury indicate a collective awareness of this opportunity. Perhaps even more noteworthy is the fact that it has the highest human capital index – ability to develop and utilize talent - for Indigenous and newcomer populations not only in all of Northern Ontario, but also provincially and nationally. Today, Greater Sudbury has the highest number of newcomers per capita compared to other census districts in Northern Ontario. While these are positive signs, the city’s total population is expected to remain largely constant from 2013 to 2041, with the labour force expected to decline by about 14 percent during that same period. “With significant numbers of unemployed and underemployed new Canadians in the Greater Toronto Area, there is a real opportunity for Greater Sudbury to address its population challenges by playing to its demonstrated strength in supporting newcomer success,” states Reggie Caverson, Executive Director, Workforce Planning for Sudbury and Manitoulin.
