Imagine living in a province as diverse as its stunning landscapes and the people who call it home. Welcome to the Northwest Territories (NWT), a captivating region located in the northwest of central Canada. With a population of over 44,000, it is the second-largest of the three territories. In urban centers, you can easily find a sense of community and connection, while still being able to retreat to peaceful and private surroundings not far from the cities and towns. During the summer months, residents enjoy the benefits of continuous sunlight, with an average July temperature of 21°C, perfect for activities like fishing, hunting, and trapping. The Northwest Territories embraces cultural diversity and takes pride in supporting residents’ traditions and practices.
The capital city of Yellowknife boasts the highest employment rate in the country. While resource extraction is the primary driver of the economy, the production of diamonds and tungsten has gained significant importance in this rapidly developing region. Alongside employment opportunities in the mining industry and tourism sector, the NWT has gained international recognition for its Inuit prints and sculptures. The highest in-demand jobs in the Northwest Territories are found in construction (including various trades and machine operations), manufacturing, and management.
