Ontario’s Niagara Parks Commission Holds Job Fair For Seasonal Workers

“Over 350 Positions Will Be Available In 2016.” – NPC

(A Brief Foreword on this one from Niagara At Large publisher Doug Draper – Why am I posting a notice on a Job Fair – something that usually shows up as a paid ad in the classified section of a newspaper – for free on a site like this?

Because Niagara, Ontario has one of the highest youth unemployment rates in the province and many other regions of the country at almost 13 per cent, according to Statistics Canada figures, this January 2016, alone.

That’s enough reason, in my view, to post this Job Fair Ontario’s Niagara Parks Commission is holding this coming Saturday for February 20^th for seasonal jobs If it helps even a few of our younger citizens find a paying job for the spring and summer months, I’m pleased to post information like this.)
