There's no question that the industry is cyclical and we are in the midst of the boom portion of the cycle. The consensus seems to be that this boom will be prolonged, but it will inevitably come to an end.
There is a huge opportunity right now given the success that the mining sector is experiencing and given its close proximity to aboriginal communities in northern Ontario and, in fact, across Canada's north, where you have some 1,200 aboriginal communities within 200 kilometres of a mine site.
There are some specific initiatives being undertaken. De Beers, for example, at its Victor project, with JBET, the James Bay employment and training partnership, is delivering training directly to the community. Despite the cyclical nature of the industry, with the development of occupational standards, what workers get are transferrable skills that can be recognized by employers in other sectors when the downturn does come. Again, those occupational standards give that mobility and the opportunity for continued meaningful employment.
