FOREWORD
==========
3things bother the É(eh)PC regarding the Toronto 2015 Pan Am Games.
(Interestingly, no other political party seems to be bothered.)
1. It seems that *ALL* THE CONTRACTS are going to the Americans.
2. We do *NOT* KNOW into whose pockets the MULTIMILLION $$$ AD contracts
are going.
3. Some of THE MOST CROOKED BUREAUCRATS - in the opinion of the É(eh)PC
- (earning FANTASTIC SALARIES) run the Pan Am Secretariat.
In THIS CONTEXT OF *MASSIVE* BUREAUCRATIC CORRUPTION - so it seems
to the É(eh)PC - regarding the Toronto 2015 Pan Am Games, the Gov't wants
20,000 "poor" students TO WORK FOR NOTHING!"
LQQking for SUCKERS!
==================
"Ontario college and university students who volunteer during the Pan Am
and Parapan Am Games next summer are eligible for a break on their OSAP
loans."
"Training, College and Universities Minister Brad Duguid announced Tuesday
that his ministry will spend $1.9 million to ensure that new, returning and
graduating post-secondary students aren't financially punished for their
volunteer activities."
" 'This is a once in a lifetime opportunity,' he said, 'We want to make
sure our students have the opportunity to experience that.' "
" 'Volunteering is volunteering,' Duguid said. 'We're not looking to pay
students to do this.' " 24H Toronto News, Wednesday, January 15th 2014,
"Pan Am volunteers to get break on student loans", p. 4.
("This" being taking tickets, shuttling athletes, helping out wherever
they're needed: 20,000 students from the beginning of July to the end
of August.")
THE BAIT: OSAP "Break"
====================
1. Their financial contribution to their OSAP loan from summer work will
be waived in their financial needs assessment.
2. This will result - on average - in a $2,800 loan increase.
3. New graduates will get an extra 6-month interest reprieve on their
repayment of their OSAP loan which "normally" only has a 6-month
reprieve: this "OSAP break" will give them a 12-month reprieve.
TOTAL COST
===========
If the Gov't is to be believed, the total cost of the "OSAP break" will
be $1.9 MILLION.
PROBLEM
=========
For every day they work, they have to pay their transportation to the
Pan Am site ($7) and lunch ($8) costing them AT LEAST $15 in OUT
OF POCKET EXPENSES.
Working 5 days a week for 8 weeks that works out to be AT LEAST ($15 x
5 days x 8 weeks = ) $600.
What are the students to live on during the spring and summer?
Where are they going to get this $600 ?
Panhandle - LIKE A BUM?
The Gov't (of one of THE MOST PROSPEROUS NATIONS in the world)*DOESN'T*
CARE.
THE BOTTOM LINE
================
It's *NOT* WORTH THEIR WHILE.
ABILITY TO PAY
=============
Our *CROOKED* FASCIST Police state Gov't has THE ABILITY TO PAY the
students $20 an hour.
After 8 weeks, they'd have ($20 an hour x 40 hours a week x 8 weeks =)
$6,400.
The cost to the Gov't would be ($6,400 x 20,000 = ) $128 MILLION.
That's *NOT* MUCH - relatively speaking - considering that the Games
are going to cost the taxpayer a couple of BILLION DOLLARS anyway -
in the end.
STOOGES
=========
For the Gov't of Ontario to *NOT* pay the 20,000 "poor" students is
to treat them as STOOGES!
It shows *NO* RESPECT.
It's DESPICABLY MEAN.
It's *NOT* RIGHT.
It's A CONTINUATION of the "abusive" *FASCIST* Police state POLICY of
"STICKING IT" TO THE STUDENTS!
SLAVE LABOUR
=============
In order to "qualify" for the OSAP "break" students have to work AT
LEAST 12 out of a "possible" 18 shifts during the Pan Am Games and
6 of a "possible" 8 for the Parapan Am events.
The É(eh)PC SOLUTION
====================
These 20,000 students would be better off working for the É(eh)PC
as EH!-recruiters: http://eh-ok.ca/5.htm.
With the É(eh)PC, the minimum wage will be $20 an hour and university
and college will be FREE!
