Summer Jobs Funding

Employers looking to hire students this summer should have access to a bit more

funding.

The federal government says it will be making 198 thousand dollars available
this year in the Kenora Riding.

Kenora M.P. Greg Rickford says the goal is to create more than 70 summer
jobs in the riding.

Rickford says the government has committed about 20 thousand dollars
more to the summer jobs program this year, which translates to about
eight jobs.
