Working with First Nations

Eleven of the Yukon’s 14 First Nations have settled their land claims. Part of maintaining a sustainable placer mining industry in the territory requires building and maintaining relationships with First Nation governments to ensure ecological sustainability, social equity and economic vitality.

The KPMA has worked closely with several Yukon First Nations to date.

Joint projects to build capacity and training opportunities for First Nation members include Crane training, Class 3-1 Driver training and Airbrakes Endorsement.
