CHALLENGE THE NARRATIVE.

STRIVE TO CREATE BALANCED AND INFORMED CONVERSATIONS.

Join young Canadians who are taking action to evaluate all perspectives concerning natural resources and the environment in Canada.

This past summer, we challenged students from across Canada to think differently. We brought them to Calgary to learn firsthand the challenges our natural resource industries face. We asked them to confront these challenges and find common ground with each other. They delivered.

OUR VALUES

Think Big. Act Bigger.

Education

YCR is for young people of every background. We connect through our shared desire to learn more about Canada’s resources and how it affects our lives and planet.

Career Development

We help students and young professionals find jobs in natural resources and gain valuable workplace skills.

Advocacy

Share your skills, ideas, and experiences to help us find where PEOPLE, PLANET and PROSPERITY can co-exist.

Canada is a major producer of natural resources
and a global leader in environmental performance.

We should be proud!
