Heh

Quebec is having issues with not employing enough minorities, so they're developing a program to find them jobs in the public service. Ok, good concept. Except unfortunately for PQ, anglophones are a minority, so they're having to create english public service jobs ;)

Of 60,000 civil servants in Quebec, fewer than four per cent are anglophone, immigrant or aboriginal. Those groups represent 18 per cent of the provincial population. Facal says provincial government departments failing to meet the new targets for hiring minorities may be required to justify themselves before a legislative committee.
