How we can ask the young people here in Canada to find work within their community and within Canada?
HOW? This is always the nagging question by old people in Canada and other countries. Do you really know the answer to such inquiry?
There are too many reasons why young people do not work here in Canada and why these young people or newly graduates never find the work they want.
EDUCATION is very important. College graduates or University graduates have the edge over undergraduates we all know that but first and foremost the question is
IS THERE A DEMAND FOR SUCH JOB? What are the available work? Where in Canada you are working or looking for employment? Would you like to work not according to the diploma or certification you received in College? Will you be willing to work as a cook/dishwasher when you have a College diploma and you are a Medical Practitioner in the Philippines? You were a surgeon in the Philippines and the available work is a cab driver, would you be willing to work as a taxi driver?
Or you are a graphics artist and will you be willing to work as a waitress or waiter?
Canada is like the Middle East. Children are spoiled and their children are treated royalty. Employers would like to hire people from other race, mostly from Third World Countries. If they can't hire low income workers then they allow seniors aged 50 years of age to 80 years of age in department stores. So what happened with the younger generation? It's not that they are not smart but they are smart and they are protected by the Canadian Government. Slave labor (or having young kids work in sweat shop and other insulting jobs for kids) is allowed in other countries but not in Canada.
I think in a well developed countries the young generations (mostly those children born with true Canadians parents are given priorities) but those who were immigrants and or just migrated from other countries will have a hard time understanding the trend.
Well, I wish my children are working or they are graduates of prestigious University, but you know there are children who are ambitious and my children are not that ambitious especially when they can get what they want. I mean, being ambitious is when you have nothing and you came from a poor family and there's not enough food and not enough clothes and you don't live in a beautiful house, you have too many siblings and you all are living under one roof with just one bathroom then that's where the TIME when you have to think that to get away from such mess you have to be ambitious and study hard, work hard and get out from the mess. I know, that's always the theme for a simple movie. But it's the truth about life in Philippines and other countries.
How can you ask your children to educate themselves, work hard or find employment after they graduated but when they are living in a house complete with all the modern technology and tech gadgets who would like to leave the house? How they can move out of the house when their mother cooked special meals, cleaned their mess, make everything available for them? Children no matter how old they are will always stay with their parents because of the availability of resources. Children wont leave a safe, secured house and when their parents treat them as their own children not slaves. When parents showed so much love , care and security for their children they tend to stay with their parents.
Higher ambition, higher skills and higher education tend to move children away from the care of their parents. These ambitious people tend to move away from home and tend to look for higher and greater, greener pasture away from their home and away from their parents. The usual driven force to get away from the mess.
There's nothing wrong with ambition and being ambitious but when obviously overt very ambitious people gets in the way then it's another NAZI STORY in the way or DARTH VADER's rule to power emerges.
