The Canada Summer Jobs
initiative of Service Canada encourages not-for-profit organizations,
public-sector employers, and small businesses with 50 or fewer employees to
create jobs that not only meet their needs, but benefit students looking to gain
work experiences.
Info at
http://www1.servicecanada.gc.ca/en/epb/yi/yep/programs/scpp.shtml.
The deadline for
applications is February 29, 2008.
Some non-profits may
wish to take advantage of the Cooperative Employment Program which provides
educational opportunities for students registered in a Nova Scotia
post-secondary co-operative education program.

on heritage projects may be eligible for a Young Canada Works Summer Student or
