Canada Works deadline Fri.
The deadline for filing
applications for the 1977 Canada
Wbrks and Young Canada Works
programs is tomorrow, Friday.
John Gillespie, manager of the
Exeter branch of Canada Man-
power said Tuesday morning
that applications are to be mail-
ed directly to the London office
so he wouldn't know until later of
any local projects.
He added, "With the number of
application forms taken out I
would say there is more interest
in the Young Canada Works pro-
jects."
' Asked of the amounts of
monies available for projects in
this area Gillespie said, "There
has been no indication of the
Young Canada allocation but I
would say the Canada Works
amount will be less than the LIP
grants which were $75,000."
Young Canada Works
allocations will depend on the
relative unemployment
situations throughout Canada.
While on the subject of _un-
employment, the local manager
said unemployment registrations
at the end of December for the
South Huron area were up about
25 percent from the same period
a year ago.
He said the unemployed total
was now about 900 compared to
700 at the end of 1975.
The South Huron area covers
from Kippen on the north across
to Lake Huron, south to Grand
Bend, down to the Huron boun-
daries on the south and east to
the Huron limits including
Usborne township.
Gillespie said, "Technically
Usborne is not in our area but for
practice most residents are
registered here for unemploy-
ment purposes."
He listed some of the reasons
for the higher rate of unemploy-
ment including an early fall stop-
page in construction due to the
weather.
Layoffs at a number of in-
dustries have contributed great-
ly to the increase in the un-
employment numbers.
