Canada and Saskatchewan labour ministers celebrate It’s Your Job! video contest with students at Humboldt Collegiate Institute
May 23, 2014 – Humboldt, Saskatchewan
Today, the Honourable Dr. K. Kellie Leitch, Canada’s Minister of Labour and Minister of Status of Women, and the Honourable Don Morgan, Saskatchewan’s Minister of Education and Minister of Labour Relations and Workplace Safety, announced the winners of the second annual It’s Your Job! video contest.
Humboldt Collegiate Institute students Dylan Pappenfoot, Logan Seipp and Dylan Stadnyk won the provincial award and received the most votes in the National Fan Favourite category for their video Just Ask.
The contest engages high school aged youth in the development and production of workplace safety videos, to promote workplace safety among their peers.
Every province and territory conducts its own It’s Your Job! contest and the winners are eligible in two national categories, one selected by a panel of celebrity judges and the other, the fan favourite, selected by Canadians across the country through an online vote. The winners selected by the celebrity judges are:
First place: Ben Croskery from John McCrae Secondary School in Ontario won for the video entitled On Call.
Second place: Pranay Noel from St. Francis Xavier Catholic Secondary School in Ontario won for the video entitled Flower.
Third place: Dane Cutcliffe from Colonel Gray High School in Prince Edward Island won for the video entitled Lost Dreams.
