Unlike other job grant programs, this one seeks to have small and medium-sized businesses become social service agencies that work with government in a very complex scheme. The proposal includes using money to make sure immigrants, especially immigrant women, not only get their first job but are promoted, or as the report says, experience “job laddering.”

Why do they hate regular Canadians so much?
Because we don’t vote for them. They need people who will more reliably vote for them and not complain about living in a totally f@#$ed up country.
Because we are the Hoi Poloi, Joe Six-Pack schmucks who only spend our money on beer and popcorn. If the CPC wasn’t led by Andy 2%, they would be out next election.
Isn’t that just lovely. Once again the Liberals prove just what they think of Canadians, especially males. Affirmative action just got an updated definition.
Affirmative action with pigmentation.
exactly…and it didn’t work out too good with us either
Pigmentation and “alternative” religion.
It won’t be long before tax paying Canadians will emigrate to the U-S as refugees.
they won’t take us white producers. they only want welfare third worlders.
That’s nothing new. Take a look at who universities are hiring for their faculties and where those new professors come from.
I know of someone who got her tenure-track position that way about a dozen years ago. She came to Canada as a foreign student, finished her studies, and, since her employer wanted to hire more women and “visible minorities”, she was almost guaranteed to get the job. In her case, though, those conditions wouldn’t have been necessary as she was quite talented as a researcher.
Yes. Good point.
Outrageous. But will Canadians even know that this is going on? I am also disgusted that they even have a policy paper called “Feminist Government” – who paid for that? Liberals are truly under the thumb of the UN.
I am floored that these sorts of policies don’t worry more Canadians.
This is scary stuff and yet the Juvenile in Chief is still popular. How is this possible?
BC, you just identified the problem.
“How is this possible?” Because the MSM gives Trudeau a pass on everything that they would be screaming bloody murder if it was Harper.
This is as Stupid as the Bureaucrat who thought up The___ Ottawa – Hull Cluster of Federal Buildings___ with it’s Own Special Access Bridge from Quebec into Ontario & Vice Versa must start being called the acronym======NCR========for -{} National Capital Region.{}- ==== It took about TEN Seconds for some Ordinary Former Canada Culture & Values Citizen(s) to advise the ____ Dunce(s) of the Federal Bureaucracy to come out of the Corner Office Chair & recognize the acronym long used by The——- NATIONAL CASH REGISTER—– Company was probably not a wise move.
Cartoons of the Dairy Cow eating all of the Grain from Western Canada and the Udder & Teats placed over the Ottawa-Hull area receiving the Milk —- with the Manure end of the Dairy Cow firmly placed over Atlantic Canada was Politically In- Correct for the feckless Liberal Party of Canada.
The most Fecund Prime Minister sets up an incredibly wide open System for Crony Corruption using the Common Denominator for describing the Difference between a Communist Tyranny and a Fascist Tyranny is when the “People of Prefernce” such as the German Aristicracy of Military History and the National Socialism Party — (read Nazi–) is now the New Mantra of the LIBERAL Party of Canada.
Human nature is such that … if one is GIVEN something for nothing, such as these skewed hiring-advantages (or affirmative-action in any form) … it devalues the individual. And it also (generally) produces a weaker worker, a crippled worker. A worker who doesn’t advance by merit … ability, personality, effort, skill … will eventually be terminated or will drag-down the entire system. Do gooder, feel-gooder, policies are seriously dangerous and demented.
Meanwhile … unfkcuingbelievably …

A homeless person NEEEEEDS a job … more than a current productive Canadian citizen
So economic exclusion of whites and a gun ban. Hasn’t that been tried somewhere recently? Somewhere in the south of the African continent perhaps? Right, white genocide is a dream. Keep repeating that. In the meantime get ready for a flood of South African refugees who have no objection to take from the whitey. While at it enjoy the nice CBC tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wb55teb1gJ0&t=17s
Isn’t this discrimination based on gender and ethnicity/national origin? Something something Charter something.
And why do I get the feeling in my gut that the budget for this sponsorship program will be run strictly out of the PMO and the FM will have no authority to oversee this discretionary spending and that the “investments” will be decided based on the information provided to the PM from the LPC organizer that visits his office once a week to decide which ridings need the funds directed to the “businesses”. There will also be the odd coincidence that the funding will be sent out and a donation will be given to the Trudeau Foundation on the same day from the owners of the businesses in receipt of the sponsorship funding. And when the AG gets suspicious and starts asking questions, it will be found that the contracts where for services of little to no value or just used to funnel government funding to the LPC.
Have I got it about right?
Joseph, all you need to do to that is ADD SCAM, and viola, deja vu all over again
Pretty soon they’ll have to hire Canadian-accented peopleskind to act as interpreters between the accented people. The government will have to create more jobs and give us courses in deciphering the accents. I spent one hour today doing just exactly that, this morning. What fun. Funny thing though, my English was awful! Heh, heh, ya shudda heard me! All present tense, no jokes! Not me at all. I didn’t recognize myself. Would I do this as a business? Nope. Too much red tape.
I worked for the Feds when affirmative action came in. We hired the ovary group en mass. They were brought in fresh out of uni with no experience and above their grade. Didn’t work out so good for the people already there and the medical leave for stress skyrocketed. I expect the same.
This is the LAST thing small business owners need – a program that mandates they must hire unqualified foreigners and train them up. Most small businesses don’t have the resources to do much training as they haven’t any spare employees to do that. And small businesses can’t afford to antagonize their customers by having incompetents working there – that’s a luxury which can only be afforded by larger companies such as the banks and the government.
In the provincial facility where I work, much of the cafeteria meat is halal, in order to cater to the many, many Mohammadans “working” there who always bring their own halal lunch.
That said, there are a number of us who see our imminent replacement and can’t say too much lest we hasten our departures. We all want to know where we can go for sanctuary.
So who’s gonna stop him?
The uber Liberal opposition?
My late mom came to visit from a former communist run country.
She plainly said that Canada is as close to socialism as you can possibly get.
That was over 2 decades ago.
That’s over 20 years ago, for those in Edmonton.
That was both funny and not funny at the same time.
Venezuela in slow motion. Now, if we had a bus driver as pm instead of a part time drama teacher.
What happened to “A Canadian, is a Canadian, is a Canadian?” Oh, I guess they dropped that one with the coercive summer jobs program. Now we have further proof that some Canadians are more equal than others. The now forgotten Omar Khadr is particularly equal.
