A conservative OPINION blog --with bite. OPINION by Joel Johannesen.Friday, May 27, 2005
I reviewed the latest Stats Can employment figures. The liberal plan is working.
Statistics Canada’s latest report on employment in Canada paints a horrid picture, unless you’re a liberal.
So far this year, employment in government has risen by 45,000 while private-sector employment has decreased by 39,000.
“In total, close to 2.67 million people were working in the three levels of government—the highest level since 1994,” Statistics Canada said.
Out of roughly 17 million workers, that works out to nearly 18%. And that’s just in full-on direct government jobs—it doesn’t include all the crown corporations and various government businesses of which there are hundreds or thousands across the country.
Nor does it include all the private businesses which have been sucking at the Liberal Party and liberal-left government teat for years and now couldn’t survive without their government subsidies and grants and “loans” and all the dozens of government inducements and the various forms of Liberal Party corporate welfare, all of which are designed to do nothing more than get Canadians addicted to liberal-left governments. And it has worked.
I imagine nearly everybody in Canada is now, after decades of nanny-state liberal-left Fabian socialist governments, reliant on the liberal-left governments to some degree or entirely, for their very job—their very family’s survival. And those who aren’t working are similarly fully dependent on the government.
Eureka—for the liberal left! And is it any wonder people now vote liberal-left in the face of the Liberal Party corruption?
Government employment reached a 10-year high last year and is continuing to increase this year.
The only job growth this year has been in the public sector or in self-employment.
Weakness in manufacturing continued in April as the number of factory jobs dropped by 29,000, with losses concentrated in Quebec and Alberta. Compared to 12 months ago, employment in manufacturing is down 3.1% (-72,000). That is extremely worrisome. Or if you’re a liberal, that is extremely good news.
Liberals are in favour of this.

COMMENTS
Comments do not necessarily reflect or in any way represent the opinion of the main blog entry writer or owner of this site, and claims to the contrary are spurious. Distasteful, abusive, hateful, or annoying remarks will likely be deleted; but since this is a relatively open forum, bad comments may accidentally remain on this site. The fact that a comment remains does not indicate an endorsement of the views.
IamCanadian says:
Since 1994 computers have improved productivity by at least 75%. The number of public jobs should have dropped by one million; not gone up. Our population has not increased that significanly in this time.
IamCanadian says:
How can our Country survive when 30% of our workforce works for the Government? The rest of the 75% of us have to produce that much more to pay all the taxes to pay all of them!!!
