Best Part Time Jobs For University Students In Canada
Especially during the summer months, when students are on break from high school, college, or university, helping young people find the right jobs that offer real-world experience in their area of interest will help those young people begin their careers, while also growing the local economy.
Since its launch in the 1980s, the Canada Summer Jobs Program has been doing exactly that. This program from the federal government provides wage subsidies to local businesses, non-profit organizations, and public sector departments so they can hire students for short-term contracts during the summer.
Winnipeg South MP Terry Duguid (centre) recently visited students working at Dakota Community Centre as part of the Canada Summer Jobs program.

The organizations are encouraged to pay students above minimum wage and the contracts are required to have a minimum of six weeks, with 30 hours of work per week guaranteed. Students are then paired with the training and mentorship they will need to succeed in their roles, and to gain the best possible experience for their future careers.
In my home riding of Winnipeg South, the program created over 460 jobs in 2022 for youth aged 15-30. Everything from local community centres, daycares, medical clinics, farmers markets, garden centres, and much more, took part in the program.
The Dakota Community Centre is one local organization that received funding to hire eight students this summer. Some of these young people took on roles as councilors for the centre’s summer camps for children, while others took on roles in marketing, and office administration. I had the pleasure of meeting many of these students back in August, as we toured the facility and heard about the great work these students have been doing over the summer.

Other local organizations that received funding include the St. Norbert Arts Centre, the Henteleff Park Foundation, the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation, MiniU summer camp, and so much more.
In addition to providing jobs to these students, the Canada Summer Jobs Program also helps local organizations hire staff that they otherwise would not be able to afford. It truly is a win-win, both for local students, and for local businesses, non-profits, and government departments.
Make sure to tell your friends and family between the ages of 15-30 to look out for the Canada Summer Jobs Program for the 2023 year.A Winnipeg church says the federal government is shutting out religious groups with a new-this-year rule for organizations seeking summer job funding, a day after the House of Commons voted down a motion to amend the change.

A Winnipeg church says the federal government is shutting out religious groups with a new rule this year for organizations seeking summer job funding, a day after the House of Commons voted down a motion to amend the change.
I think it was very heavy-handed. I don't really understand why [the federal government] decided not to listen to the concerns of so many of their constituents across the country, said Glenn Krobel, lead pastor at Winnipeg's Centerpoint Church.

Certainly, we've tried to be careful and articulate in a way that was respectful and thoughtful, but … they just haven't been willing to change anything.
For the better part of the past decade, Krobel says his church has applied for, and received, funding through the Canada Summer Jobs grant to pay summer students to work at its day camp. This year, their initial application was rejected. He's not sure they'll get the funding on reapplication, because of a controversial new requirement in the application.
The federal Liberals introduced a new element on the 2018 grant application, requiring applicants to check off a box attesting they respect individual human rights in Canada, including reproductive and LGBT rights.

Church leader calls federal summer jobs funding rules unfair5 years ago Duration 2:00 Centrepoint Church says it was denied funding from Ottawa for its summer camp program this year because of new rules surrounding application requirements. Nelly Gonzalez reports.
According to numbers provided by the federal government, applications to the program have increased slightly to 42, 718 from 41, 961 last year. Reported rejections, however, have skyrocketed, increasing twelve-fold to 1, 561 from 126 in 2017.
A spokesperson for Labour Minister Patty Hajdu told News that applications were rejected for a variety of reasons, including improperly filled-out forms and groups not checking the box for the attestation.

The spokesperson did not provide a specific breakdown on how many applications were rejected based on the latter. He said all groups rejected were asked to reapply.

The number of eligible applications received this year are on par with last year, and came from tens of thousands of small businesses, faith-based organizations, and community organizations across Canada, Matt Pascuzzo, Hajdu's press secretary, wrote in an email to News.

On Monday, MPs in the House of Commons voted against a motion introduced by Ontario Conservative MP Karen Vecchio, which would have amended the application to allow organizations that engage in non-political, non-activist work to access the funding regardless of whether they checked off the attestation.
The motion was voted down with 207 votes against and 93 votes in favour — including votes from every Conservative MP. Only one MP from the Liberals and one from the NDP voted in support of the motion, as did Green Party MP Elizabeth May.
The government is withholding taxpayer money. This isn't simply money that they received from nowhere. It's from every taxpayer who's voted on every area of the political spectrum, Krobel said.

The government's role is to govern for everyone, not just the people that agree with them or that voted for them, or that they feel may have voted for them.
The government has said the additional wording on this year's application was a response to concerns Hajdu heard last year that funding through the program had gone toward paying for students to protest outside abortion clinics or create and distribute graphic anti-abortion pamphlets, or went to groups that refused to hire LGBTQ staff.
Krobel said neither his church nor its day camp engage in any level of activism, but leaders still felt their conscience prevented them from signing the attestation.

On Centerpoint's first application, the church did not check the attestation box, but provided a letter explaining its stance, following a recommendation from the Canadian Council of Christian Charities.
The council encouraged charities in Centerpoint's position to apply, without checking the attestation box, and provide a letter requesting accommodation under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Canadian Human Rights Act.
Our religious beliefs and obligations, our conscience, our beliefs, thoughts, and opinions all preclude us from making the attestation as set out in the
