Feb. 3 new deadline for employers to apply for ‘Canada Summer Jobs’ funding

The application period has been extended for the 2021 Canada Summer Jobs program, and employers interested in applying for funding to hire a young person can now submit their applications until Wednesday February 3, 2021.

Creating as many opportunities as possible for young people to earn money, grow professionally and succeed in the workforce is more important now than ever. Young Canadians today are facing unparalleled challenges finding good quality jobs that they are passionate about. This program in particular presents tremendous opportunities for both young people and employers who are looking to hire new workers. I invite you to share information about Canada Summer Jobs more broadly so that employers and young people can benefit.
