To answer your question, I must say that two major programs in Alberta were not extended.
The first was the Small Business Internship program, which provided us with government funding, from Industry Canada in this instance, which was redistributed to businesses, SMEs, so that they could hire people to train in e-commerce. That very important program provided jobs for young people, for new graduates. As far as I know, the program was cancelled without being evaluated.
The same is true of the Co-operative Development Initiative. Our council in Alberta was a member of the Conseil canadien de la coopération et de la mutualité. Now we will be a member of CMC. This program was cancelled and the consequences have been quite significant.
This funding previously helped us create cooperatives. For example, thanks to us, a theatre cooperative was established in Calgary. Two weeks ago, it had a major success when it presented a theatre play to nearly full houses for an entire weekend. Unfortunately, we cannot continue helping people who want to start up cooperatives.
