The federal government can use those types of funds, like the opportunities fund. The gentleman over here on the right this morning said, “We don't want to go back to taxpayers and ask them for more money.” We don't need to do that. The resources are already there. The money that's being used for wage subsidies right now should be used for those engagement programs instead of having social service agencies take a cheque for $5,000 and give it to an employer to hire somebody with a disability. That is a very dangerous thing to do. Yes, it gets that person in the door, but it's not sustainable. The attitude of the employer has not changed. He or she still sees that person as somehow broken, not whole.
If the wage subsidy runs out, which invariably it will, what happens to that position after that? Also, positions in companies that have a wage subsidy component are rarely real and meaningful positions. They're made-up positions that have been suggested by a social service agency.
