Yesterday, The Career Foundation joined partners f Yesterday, The Career Foundation joined partners from across the province at Queen’s Park for Advocacy Day, hosted by @firstworkontario . As part of Ontario’s Workforce Development Network — representing more than 115 employment and employer service providers — we met with MPPs and ministers to share one clear, collective message: strong workforce systems matter.

With a united voice, our conversations focused on practical solutions that strengthen results for Ontarians: stabilizing funding to move beyond short‑term cycles, reducing red tape so frontline teams can focus on people rather than administration, and leveraging community‑level expertise to respond quickly to labour market needs. These are proven ways to increase impact, efficiency, and value from existing investments.

We also had the opportunity to meet with MPPs from the constituencies where The Career Foundation operates, grounding system‑level priorities in local impact. These discussions highlighted how employment services help people facing barriers to employment build stability — improving outcomes not only in work, but across income support, health, and community well‑being.

Thank you to the government representatives and partners who took the time to connect with us:

Stephanie Smyth, MPP for Toronto–St. Paul’s
Stephanie Bowman, MPP for Don Valley West
Mohamed Firin, MPP for York South–Weston and Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills
Sheref Sabawy, MPP for Mississauga–Erin Mills and Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills
Michelle Cooper, MPP for Eglinton–Lawrence and Parliamentary Assistant to the Ontario Finance | Ontario Finances 
Akosua A., Executive Director (First Work)
Lance Barrett, Director, Workforce Development (The Career Foundation)
Kristy Sansom, Director, Stakeholder Relations, Resource Development & Growth (The Career Foundation)
Shauna McKenzie-Onita, Manager, Economic and Workforce Development Strategies (The Career Foundation)
