Pack Up And Move


Here is the authoritarian solution to unemployment typical of Conservatives and other right wing regimes, oh like the you know who.

MP: Help workers move
Alberta Tory says government should help relocate unemployed

Unemployed Atlantic Canadians should be encouraged by Ottawa to go where their opportunities are — namely job-rich Alberta — a parliamentary committee heard Thursday.

The suggestion, that the Conservative government could use taxpayers’ dollars to relocate jobless people from the Atlantic region, was made in Ottawa by Brian Jean — a Tory MP from northern Alberta — at a session of a federal committee studying employability in Canada.

Of course this guy forgets that there are over 2500 tradesmen currently unemployed in Alberta looking for work. Unemployed trades?

Or maybe he didn't. Since they are all union workers, and he is after all a Tory.

Do I smell another form of Tory Union busting.
