Please be advised that the Government of Canada is once again sponsoring the Canada Summer Jobs program designed to help employers create summer job opportunities for students. Canada Summer Jobs provides funding to not-for-profit organizations, public-sector employers, and small businesses to create summer job opportunities for young people aged 15 to 30 years who are full-time students intending to return to their studies in the next school year. Public and private-sector employers are eligible for a wage subsidy of up to 50% of the provincial/territorial adult minimum hourly wage – in PEI the minimum wage is $10.35 an hour. For additional information and application information for this program please refer to: http://www.servicecanada.gc.ca/eng/epb/yi/yep/programs/scpp.shtml The closing date for applications is January 30, 2015. For additional information please contact Debbie McKie, Human Resources, (902) 566-0515.
