which are very volatile on global markets. The mining industry is the biggest private sector employer, with substantial gold, uranium, and diamond mines in operation. The Mackenzie River Valley and the Beaufort Sea offshore oil and gas production are also becoming significant. The diamond business in the Northwest Territories has lately grown as a result of worries about conflict diamonds in other parts of the globe.<\/p><p>Despite having specific in-demand employment opportunities, The Northwest Territories is still a great place to work if your career skills fall under the mining, oil and gas, or fishing industry. Yellowknife, the Northwest Territories capital has recently had some major development resulting in a thriving service sector that offers a wide range of career options. Yellowknife&#8217;s economy is rising at the third-fastest rate in Canada, just behind Vancouver and Toronto, according to recent studies.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f2e36d9 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f2e36d9\" data-element_type=\"section\" id=\"sef\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4c723459 elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"4c723459\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-106e2711 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"106e2711\" data-element_type=\"widget\" id=\"ciw\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Study in The Northwest Territories\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-96a367c elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"96a367c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canadacis.org\/app\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Study-in-The-Northwest-Territories.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-20600\" alt=\"Study in The Northwest Territories\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canadacis.org\/app\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Study-in-The-Northwest-Territories.png 500w, https:\/\/www.canadacis.org\/app\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Study-in-The-Northwest-Territories-300x180.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Study in The Northwest Territories<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-264c4503 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"264c4503\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>All Canadians and permanent residents under the age of twenty have the right to free public school education up to and including their last year of high school.
