Message CEO/President Aboriginal Human Resource Development Council of Canada KELLY LENDSAY August 2006 Dear Workforce Connex participant, It is my pleasure to present the outcomes of the fourth forum in the national Workforce Connex series, which was held in Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Labrador on June 19, 2006. The concept behind Workforce Connex came to life when the Honourable Claudette Bradshaw, former Minister of State (Human Resources Development), undertook a series of roundtables with stakeholders across the country in 2005. The principal purpose of the tour was to bring together Aboriginal Human Resource Development Agreement holders (AHRDAs), private sector and other key stakeholders to discuss better collaborations in Aboriginal labour force development. Throughout this process the council emphasized the importance of collaboration, coordination and communication. It was also noted that to achieve results, the potential partners; government, the private sector, community groups and Aboriginal Peoples, have to be committed to implement sustainable partnership strategies. It is rewarding to know this vision came alive through active discussion among all participating stakeholder groups at the Labrador forum. Participants were engaged in discussion and motivated to break down barriers and find solutions to resolve the current training, recruitment and retention issues of Aboriginal Peoples. It is now critical for the Labrador Workforce Connex participants to continue dialogue and build strong and sustainable partnerships that will encourage and provide training and jobs for Aboriginal people in Labrador. The Aboriginal Human Resource Development Council of Canada (AHRDCC) will continue its work to facilitate discussion among trades and apprenticeship stakeholders to help build a skilled Aboriginal workforce that feeds the growing need of Canada’s Aboriginal Peoples and economy. We would like to thank you, the participant, for your involvement in Workforce Connex Labrador. The council looks forward to your continued involvement and added value in this multi-dimensional partnership initiative. Your role is critical! Sincerely, Kelly Lendsay President/CEO Aboriginal Human Resource Development Council of Canada 2
