Do you know the Client Partners agency?
It is a very successful company in Japan.
It allows single people to hire friends.
You recently separated and you don’t want to go to the cinema or to the restaurant alone like a dog?
You call Client Partners, and they’ll find you a “friend” to accompany you.
Cost: $75 per hour.
It’s like an escort agency, but without sex.
You can also rent yourself a family. A fake brother, a fake mother…
A fake brother-in-law.
AT THE STRONGEST THE POCKET
Do you find that weird?
Yet that is what our governments are doing.
Every time a foreign company opens a factory in Canada, our Prime Minister and his Minister of the Economy go crazy saying, “Look how fantastic we live in! ABC Company is a respected multinational that might have been established in any country around the world! But she chose to settle here!”
Ditto when a multinational decides to open a factory in Quebec.
It is said that these companies were seduced by the quality of our workforce, the strength of our economy, the dynamism of our culture, the beauty of our landscapes, the quality of our raw materials, and so on.
Bullshit.
They came here because we paid them to come here.
Like fake friends you hire through an agency.
Look at Volkswagen. The German multinational did not decide to open an electric battery factory in Canada because it found the country stimulating.
She doesn’t care regarding Canada!
She made this decision because she was given a check for $13 BILLION.
It’s our money that these multinationals love!
To say that these companies chose Canada because they love Canada is like a guy who, following having a naked dancer come to his table for the third time in an hour, says to his friends, “I think that I have a ticket, she gave me pretty eyes a while ago!”
Duh!
GET YOUR STOMACH PINKED
There are two ways to create jobs.
Implement measures that promote job creation: less bureaucracy, lower taxes, long-term investment in certain key sectors, giving a boost to SMEs, improving training, etc.
Or take out the checkbook and roll out the red carpet for the big multinationals.
Giving millions to wealthy foreign entrepreneurs who shit gold bars.
Like Volkswagen.
The difference between the first and the second way is the difference between losing weight by exercising and changing your diet, and losing weight by getting your stomach hooked.
The second way is faster and gives more spectacular results, but it doesn’t change the root of the problem.
Unfortunately, in Canada (and in Quebec), we prefer the second solution.
It’s more flashy.
“Look, we created 200 jobs all of a sudden by attracting the company ABC to us!”
Yes, but at what price? How much did each job cost?
And who tells you that following five years, once its check has been cashed, the ABC company will not raise the markers?
