light refreshments
the wataynikaneyap power transmission system will dramatically change the way electricity is delivered to remote first nations in northwestern ontario, canada, who previously relied on diesel generation for their electricity needs. the $1.9 billion cad project, whose name means “line that brings light” in anishininiimowin, is equally owned by 24 first nations (51%) in partnership with fortis inc. and other private investors. this is an unprecedented indigenous ownership model of infrastructure in canada. the transmission system connects remote first nations to the provincial power grid via 1,800 kilometers of transmission lines and 22 substations. reliable power opens the possibilities for growth and development, such as new housing and infrastructure. grid connection will have a significant impact for first nations which were previously constrained by expensive and environmentally unsustainable diesel generators already at capacity.
wataynikaneyap power is offering a two-year bursary and mentorship program to support post-secondary 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 from the transmission system’s owner communities.* successful applicants will receive:
wataynikaneyap power also provides student work experience placements, co-ops, and internships. applying for this bursary is a good step towards introducing yourself and your interest in working with the wataynikaneyap power team!
*ownership includes the following first nations: bearskin lake, cat lake, deer lake, kasabonika lake, keewaywin, kingfisher lake, kitchenuhmaykoosib inninuwug, lac des mille lacs, lac seul, mcdowell lake, mishkeegogamang, muskrat dam, north caribou lake, north spirit lake, ojibway nation of saugeen, pikangikum, poplar hill, sachigo lake, sandy lake, slate falls, wabigoon lake, wapekeka, wawakapewin, and wunnumin lake.
