All 10 provincial and 3 territorial ministers of employment and job training issued a joint statement ahead of yesterday’s meeting with Federal Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault. It concerns the feds decision to cut job training programs across Canada. Corner Brook MHA Gerry Byrne says the meeting did not go well and Boissonnault said “not happening,” and that “Ottawa wants to spend that money and get the visibility for spending it.” Furthermore, Byrne says they wants to spend the $625 million on artificial intelligence. Byrne says the cuts to funding will affect tens of thousands of people in this province, like students, Indigenous people, women, and disabled people. The majority of the funding comes from employment insurance premiums paid by workers and employers.
