Mr. Speaker, INEO Employment Services in Port Alberni provides vital support to help people trying to find jobs. It offers necessary training and capacity building for employment readiness. It can do this because of B.C.'s community and employer partnerships program. However, it recently lost support due to federal funding cuts.
The funding cuts are happening because the Liberals slashed B.C.'s funding by $74 million. The Liberals are leaving people out to dry, but do everything they can to continue to prop up rich CEOs.
Will the Liberals immediately restore B.C.'s federal funding to make sure that these critical programs keep running?
