The Saskatchewan Indian Institute of Technology argues for greater access to Saskatchewan\u0027s growing tech sector for Indigenous people.

The expansion of local fire services has also created new jobs that support community economies and self-determination. Indigenous innovation can support Saskatchewan and Canada, to effectively meet the most pressing challenges we face.

Many studies, including the Brookfield Institute’s report Who Are Canada’s Tech Workers?, have shown that Indigenous people continue to be underrepresented and underpaid. A few examples include a five-month entrepreneurship certificate program, access to micro-grants, immersive innovation camps for youth in community, access to leading-edge technology and tools, and wrap-around support to help students with life essentials.

Saskatchewan is facing a tremendous opportunity. With a thriving tech sector, a shortage of workers and a pool of qualified and ambitious Indigenous talent, the province can chart its path forward to honour its treaty responsibilities and lead the country in economic reconciliation.
