Mr. Speaker, we continue to navigate our ever-changing circumstances as the pandemic continues around the world. After a long winter, I am sure we are all looking forward to summer, fresh air, and outdoor activities.
Caroline Wawzonek, Minister of Industry, Tourism and Investment (ITI), today announced Rolling, Action! The Next 5 Years: NWT Film and Media Sector Strategy and Action Plan (2021-2026) with a new Producers Incentive Pilot Program (PIPP) to continue developing and investing in the Northwest Territories’ (NWT) Film and Media sector.
Territorial park campgrounds are open again for the 2021 season.
For NWT residents, getting outside and enjoying our spectacular NWT parks and campgrounds is a healthy and safe activity during the COVID-19 pandemic. So, get outside, visit our campgrounds and take advantage of all they have to offer.
(For out-of-territory travellers, please be aware that leisure travel is currently not permitted within the NWT. Out-of-territory residents should not plan a trip to visit NWT territorial parks this summer.)

Memorable vacations are not always defined by how far you go. It’s what you do and who you do it with that makes them special.

In March 2021, the Department of Industry Tourism and Investment (ITI) launched an engagement survey to residents around the equity requirements and market disruption clauses of its Support for Entrepreneurs and Economic Development (SEED) Policy.
