I don't think we can wait 2 years to get rid of these thieves. These guys (and the few token pseudowomen)need to be gone before they sell one bit more of our public property, including our land and water, and before they impoverish one more person. I am so angry at people who get so easily duped by the corporate media that they voted for this unholy coalition of Conservatives, Liberals and Alliance Parties (the CLAP). Why did people think that rich guys should rule?

To say "parents will not put children at risk" is to deliberately ignore the number of fast food meals, the oceans of soft drinks and slurpies consumed and the lack of excersize which has led to an epidemic of grossly obese kids. To say such a thing ignores the rate of Fetal Alcohol Effect, Fetal Drug Effect and other avoidable ailments imposed on kids. To say a thing like that ignores the obvious fact that far too many parents in this province put their kids in harms' way by voting for these arstles in the last election.

i am curenty debating this topic at school and its interesting to c all the points people have. U all seem to be totaly against bill 37 but like n debating i learned u cant make a judgment till u have all the facts. Melody u said its puting ur kids at risk... but realistacly is it if there handing out change to a custmer at a local Mcdonalds after school? maby children (my age) 12 - 14 want jobs for some summer money. to buy some stuff. also they arnt being put at risk in order to get the job u must have your parents signature so there for they cant get o job with out there parents knowing. but at the same time i know as a fact i wouldent want to be seeing little 12 year olds filing income tax... little children cant demand any more money then minum wage like a 15 year old can. they would be paid under minum wage ($6 b.c)for the first 600 hours of work so if a child worked 3 hours a day... he/she would be paid verry little 4 200 days! in conclusion this totaly to sided i would appreciate it if u did a little more reserch be4 making final judgments

the law should lower the age to get a legal job.the age is 16 so they should make it to 15.

I am Carmen's debating partner and i agree with her u cant make a true, realistic, educated, judgement until u know all the facts and have been following it and paying attention to it. I agree i think that it will harm the kids. All the research i have done has led me to the conclusion that it will harm the kids because it will force them to work when they should be doing homework. You should let kids be kids sometimes they need to have fun and not be all stressed out about being on time for work, getting there, about their boss, etc etc.....If bill 37 is passed it will be a huge mistake!

i think kids should be able to work when they are 13 some kids need money for good things

I think that being unable to get a job under the age of 16 is stupid, whenever a kid thinks he is capible of working he or she should have all the right to do so with a parents concent. As kids age they think that they are getting a little to old to keep getting money from parents, and plus have the time they are unable to get it. So i think kids should be able to start working at the age of 12.

I think kids at the age of 12 should get jobs it's just plain stupit so we should viable to get jobs and get money and get rewared just lik adults we should be treated like an adult.

Carmen I work at Mc Donalds. You don't just hand out change, you burn yourself with fry baskets, you burn yourself on the grill. You have to go outside in the cold in your visor and you get frost bite. When you work at Mc Donalds you have to work close shifts on school nights- that means working until anything later than 1:00 am mostly it falls to 2:00am but people have stayed until 4:30 am before. $6 and hour is also a ridiculously low wage. Everyone in a restaurant is fundamentally doing the same job, regardless of age. People should be getting paid more for doing a good job, and having worked there longer, not because they are younger.

wassup people ? kids can get good jobs making six figures a year too!

kids 12 and older need to be able to get jobs because they need money for games,clothes , and other stuff maybe thats why we should gets jobs. some parents dont wont to give us the money so we should earn it areselves

I wolud like a summer job

Hello I m zafer demir from istanbul I wnat to work in canada please help me best regards zafer demir

I would like a job but can not get one because I am not yet 16 years of age.

i wiil also like to get a good job like them and im of 13

I think kids should have jobs because as adults have an oppertunity to earn money, why can't our children. It's only fair.

I really think kids under 15 should have a summer job. Maybe to make a little money to spend over the summer for their needs possible. Like for school clothes, shoes, and other things like that, instead of asking their parents or guardians for money all the tme 24/7. So this is my comments. What are yours on summer jobs for teens?????????

i think kids at the age of twelve should be able to work at the age of twelve after school because kids want all these things like playstation2 games,cds, computer games and others and their parents wont let them have it so they need pocket money

let kids work at the age of 12 people!!!!!!!!!!!!!

these people are so dumb not letting kids work

I think Kids 15 and under should be able to get a job.Only if that is their choice.Maybe they need a job for something they really want, but their parents won't let them get it, besides adults are always saying "do you have a job or "you have to WORK!!! for it".

I need job every were is 15 or older

i am a 12 year old kid and i think that kids my age need jobs.because we all way need money, like for buy clothing that we like and also other thing.

I really want a job im 12 yrs old and i want to be able to work in the summer cuz it gets boring i want to make money im broke

I'm 12 yrs. old and I believe that getting a job at my age would be beneficial, because I would be able to pay for essential things such as shampoo, food,clothing because my family does not earn enough money to support everyone so it would be much eaiser for alot of families if children my age could get a job and pay for the nessecities as well as some luxuries in life.

i am 12 years old and i am looking for a job and my parents approve, its just that i am not in the legal age of having one! i mean we need money for very good reasons!

us gurls want money to spend for clothes and stuff! y cant we gt a job?

we need money for things these days us girl always go out with our girlfriends and go shoppin with em we need at least a bit more money. its just that i am not in the legal age of having one! i mean we need money for very good reasons! us gurls want money for clothes and shoes and lip gloss and magazines and cd's to buy! y cant we get a job? i get 30 bucks amonth but i want a little bit more 2 spend on the things i need and i mostly want! is that 2 much 2 ask 4? think about it. take a second.

i fell good today how bout u?
do u feel humpy because i do. just 2 tell u, i am horney

I am 14 and my mom always says that If I want somthing, I must pay for it with my own money. But so far I am only getting paid twice a year- my birthday, and christmas. And for the rest of the year I'm broke, and living off of my mother. Give parents and kids a break and let kids work. But if they are slacking, fire them-simple as that.

I say if you are a 12 year old or 14 year old you should be able to get a job. It are some circumstances other than buying clothes.These people should think about the mother struggling with 6 kids and has 2 jobs mind you she is a single mom and has a fourteen year old.That 14 year old can help support her family. If the kid is not responsible enough you can always fire them. How many families must end up on the street and in the system before they let us work?Not all kids are ignorant.

not all kids are ignorant like Tara please let us get jobs

butt holes that don't hire us 14 year olds are crazy. we can work just as hard as a 16 year old, & some harder. If some kid was ignorant that doesn't mean we are all ignorant. some of Us accualy have sence. &for the ones that don't, give them the hard boot, kick them to the curd, broom them! and make room for the rest of us soon to be working students!

i am a parent and i need help from my child thank you nae you have expressed what my child feels. i am struggling so please lower the age before millions of us parents get put on the street.
