The McGuinty Government has unveiled a new training program for northern Ontario residents.
Aboriginal Affairs Minister Chris Bentley says they want to train aboriginals, Metis and other northerners who want a new job but don't have the necessary skills.
"It ables the business organization with the training provider and the First Nations communities to come together with a proposal to say "we want to train these people for these jobs."
The 45-million dollar fund will cover part of the training costs with the rest coming from the businesses looking to hire.
