They worked in a variety trades as carpenters, electricians, powerline technicians, machinists, steamfitters/pipefitters, automotive service technicians and plumbers. Most of the interviewees were from Atlantic Canada. This work was guided by CAF-FCA and the Southern First Nations Secretariat (SFNS) Indigenous Project Advisory Committees.
