Manitoba promises $600K to help train First Nations women in specialized trades

First Nations women from four Manitoba communities will soon be able to access specialized training to help them secure jobs in trades. The province announced Wednesday it's spending about $600,000 to partner with the Manitoba Construction Sector Council (MCSC) and offer training in framing, water and waste-water installation and blast hole drilling, which are all skills that are in high demand.
