Keep Jobs in Canada

The Keep Jobs in Canada Campaign’s online petition has amassed nearly 7000 signatures since the May 6th launch on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. This is great news but we can do better! Canadians are gravely concerned about unemployment in Canada and speaking out about the devastating impact that the offshoring of jobs has on our economy and communities. This sends a clear message to companies like TELUS who continue to send jobs overseas and to the Government who seems to have turned a blind eye: Enough is enough!

Keep Jobs in Canada Campaign site at www.keepjobsincanada.ca where you can also sign the online petition, send a letter to your MP, or simply follow the Campaign on Fickr, Twitter, You Tube, and Facebook.
