Climate Of Fear Dept: The settlement agencies, which offer language classes, help in finding jobs and other integration programs for thousands of newcomers each year, stand to lose tens of millions in funding. In all likelihood, most of them face closing next year, as the bulk of their funding comes from Ottawa, according to The Star. Among the agencies losing their federal funding are the South Asian Women s Centre, established in 1982, and Tropicana Community Services, founded in 1980 to serve disadvantaged Caribbean families and youth and at least 10 Greater Toronto immigrant service agencies have been told by Citizenship and Immigration Canada that their program funding will not be renewed next year, with up to 35 others across Ontario also facing significant cuts. Hundreds of jobs are also on the line in the sector, where settlement workers and administrators are now living in a climate of fear, sources told the Star . As reported in the news.
