Outsourcing of BC jobs need to stop

The mere mention of the word is enough to send shivers down the spines of millions of Canadians, fearful of losing their jobs to workers in China, India, or some other country where labor is cheap.

While economists, business leaders, and others debate whether outsourcing poses a serious threat to the BC. workforce, and what -- if anything -- can be done about it, governments now and previous have done nothing to protect jobs.

They say they will but they have not been forced to, our party gives a veto vote on legislation that hurts the economy, and takes the food of your child’s table.

BC Refed is your right to control the government, empty promises, need to go

In truth, the country is awash with outsourcers -- ready, willing and able to send BC jobs overseas. But the culprits aren't the people, it’s the lobby groups, special interest groups, this needs to be changed and addressed. Then stopped

The real outsourcers have devastated once-flourishing industries and the communities in which they were located. Their deeds have consigned hundreds of thousands of Canadian, and BC residents unemployed.

Meanwhile, the jobs these people once had have been given to foreign workers because our governments are not controlled by the people, they do as they please. The question is why?

Though much attention has focused on outsourcing in manufacturing and information technology (IT), by far the biggest damage has been wrought in the timber and mineral-extraction industries.

These industries provide some of the most essential products of modern life. Paper, furniture, and much-coveted hardwood floors are just the most visible fruits of the timber industry. Similarly, the precious metals taken from mines find their way into cars, bridges, computers, cell phones, cooking utensils, and dozens of other creations of human ingenuity.

In the last decade alone, mills, pulp and paper plants, and other forest products facilities have closed throughout BC, because you don't count.

Meanwhile, thousands of jobs the timber industry once provided to communities throughout the BC have been outsourced to other countries.

Outsourcing jobs, who wins not us, and not even the slave labour of the citizens that have no rights.

These are real job losses, courtesy of governments that do not represent the BC residents but special intrest groups.

Time for change, Time to control your goverment,

BC Refed is the only Party that will enpower the people

Only you can allow this to continue if you keep voting for un-democratic parties, that look after there friends only.
