Request for the Canadian Goverment to create effective Wage Subsidy Programs

To:  Goverment of Canada - PM Steven Harper

We, as the heart of Canadian business and the working people request that the Government of Canada immediately review the current EI benefits and related work share, wage subsidy and other Service Canada programs and create new and more effective "Wage Subsidy" programs which will keep people at work or allow those who have been laid off to return to work.

Simply put it makes no sense to have companies laying off hard working and dedicated people who then must draw EI benefits to survive when the same funding could also be used towards effective "Wage Subsidy" programs keeping many of these same people at work and fully employed at no additional cost to the tax payer. Using Government funding to pay people to stay at home who want to work is a gross waste of tax payer dollars and our countries human resources!

Well designed and implemented "Wage Subsidy" programs will help Canadian companies remain competitive, save costs on retraining and give people secure employment with full wages. Those same companies and working people will then have the confidence to invest and spend stimulating the economy which will help lead our country into a recovery!

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
