Collaboration at its BEST: Mattagami
First Nation
It’s Time for Change (ITFC) is pleased to share and shine a light on
one of its own partners, Mattagami First Nation. Recently,
Mattagami First Nation’s commitment to partnership and
collaboration has resulted in the announcement by I AM Gold’s
decision to proceed with the construction of the Côté Gold
Project.
The Côté Gold Project is anticipated to generate 1,000 jobs; 450 of
which plan to be hired during construction, $5 billion in wages
and more than $10 billion in GDP in years to come.
First Nations partners, Mattagami First Nation and Flying Post First
Nation have a great deal to look forward to, but also future
employees, partnerships and coordinating efforts are still needed
to ensure this works for everyone.
The economic growth opportunities, jobs and procurement
possibilities can drive economic development and growth, which
can contribute greatly to the social and economic well-being of
