History
In 2002, this site was created by the dynamic teamwork of a group called Virtual Youth Canada in conjunction with 18 Federal partners. Click here to learn more about everyone who was involved in this exciting project.
Canadian Youth Connection Team
Over time, Virtual Youth Canada evolved into the Canadian Youth Connection team where youth have the opportunity to:
- interact with other youth across the nation
- win cool prizes
- learn new skills
- fulfil their volunteer requirements
- provide suggestions for this website
- provide advice and feedback to the Government of Canada on a variety of issues
- and most importantly, have fun!
Through a series of bi-weekly activities, the CYC team shares their collective feedback on questions posed by the Government of Canada and its partners.
The Canadian Youth Connection team is always active and engaged in finding new ways to better serve youth coast to coast. Come aboard for a rewarding experience!!
