Youth AI and Digital Innovation Program – Building Digital Futures Across Manitoba, Northwestern Ontario, Nunavut, and Minnesota

Our regional Youth AI and Digital Innovation Program, supported by the OpenAI Researcher Access Program, is a groundbreaking regional initiative connecting youth across Manitoba, Northwestern Ontario, Nunavut, and Minnesota. This program empowers the next generation of leaders to explore artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, digital storytelling, data literacy, and emerging technologies through hands-on projects and culturally grounded learning.

Rooted in youth-led innovation, the program focuses on equitable access to AI education, fostering digital skills development and creating opportunities for Indigenous and rural youth to participate in the global digital economy. Participants engage in real-world projects such as AI-powered storytelling, voice interface design, data visualization, and community-based research—bridging technology and social impact.

Jukebox In Exile is the new country music album from Flin Flon singer-songwriter C.C. Trubiak, blending classic country, honky-tonk, Americana and traditional storytelling into a collection of songs inspired by resilience, community and life in Northern Manitoba. Written during and after the 2025 Flin Flon wildfire evacuation, the album draws influence from country music legends including Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings and George Jones. Featuring the singles "Old Country Songs," "Being Rich" and the charting track "Outlaws Meditation," Jukebox In Exile showcases Trubiak's signature songwriting while celebrating small-town life, northern Canadian culture, queer country music and the enduring spirit of Flin Flon. The album is available now on major music streaming platforms.
Manitoba's own C.C. Trubiak's new album "Jukebox in Exile" dropped on June 5! Check it out today!
