This is probably a violation of the philosophy of this place, but I've a friend who could use some help. The only repayment would be the empowerment of another ally.

This friend is a young woman whom I've known for some years. She's very bright, very industrious, and fairly conservative in her views.
She's living in the Toronto area, and hasn't been able to find work for some time. She's been trying to go to school to become a paralegal, as well. Predictably, the longer she's gone w/o working, the harder to find work it has become.
We're actually discussing her situation on Skype, and she's feeling a frustration very familiar to me. All she wants is the opportunity to work; to trade value for value. She doesn't want welfare, she wants to work. I think the need to be productive is more important to her than feeding herself.

I fear she's on the verge of giving up.

All I'm asking is that, if anyone who lives or works in the area knows of an entry-level position available, or who themselves need dedicated workers, could you please let me know so I can pass the information on to her and improve her chances of finding work?
