Blogs are important, however, we must recognize that 85% of actual news reporting (interviewing, door knocking, rummaging through records etc.) are done by newspapers, that online freelance journalism cannot replace. Our newspapers are being threatened: by govnt, entertainment competition, cuts etc. We must not undermine their importance in questioning (non-opinionatedly) the status quo.(Different) Job Search Help

What are NOC Codes?
NOC Codes are part of Canada’s National Occupational Classification (NOC) System. The NOC binder, which can be found in most libraries and career centres, contains the classification structure and descriptions of 522 occupational unit groups that constitute the Canadian labour market. Equally helpful is The Career Handbook, which serves as the counselling component to NOC, and includes information on interests, physical activities, and education/training indicators. A detailed index of occupational descriptions, as well as a training tutorial in using NOC codes, can be found at http://www23.hrdc-drhc.gc.ca/.
