The Nunatsiavut Assembly is looking for two Labrador Inuit Land Claim Beneficiaries who are grade school students, thirteen (13) years of age or older, to provide Page services during the next Sitting of the Assembly.
These two students will experience what happens in the Assembly, how work is conducted, and get to meet the Ministers, Ordinary Members and AngajukKât representing each community in the land claim area, Upper Lake Melville and the Canadian Constituency.
A Page’s responsibility is to receive and deliver notes and papers between the Clerk and other Members of the Assembly, provide water to people while they work, and on direction of the Speaker, use the bell to call Members to the Assembly Chamber.
Hopedale, Labrador is the Legislative Capitol of the Nunatsiavut Government and the Assembly generally meets 4-6 times per year to conduct its business.
The successful applicants for Page services will be paid $15 per hour and have travel, meals, and accommodations paid for by the Nunatsiavut Government.
If you have any questions, please contact Tabea Onalik, Assistant to the Clerk of the Assembly, at 709-933-3769 ext.222. Applications can be submitted via fax to 709-933-3746, or by email at tabea.onalik@nunatsiavut.com.
There will be an extraordinary Assembly Sitting on Tuesday September 6, 2022. At this extraordinary sitting, the Pagers will be from Nain.
There is an application process to become a Pager at the Nunatsiavut Assembly.
If you are from Nain, a student aged 13 and up, and are interested in the business of the Nunatsiavut Assembly, please reach out to Roxanne Barbour, Ordinary Member of the Nunatsiavut Assembly for Nain; she can print and provide a copy of the Page’s Application Form, and help you submit your application to the Assistant to the Clerk of the Nunatsiavut Assembly.
