    Record scratch, freeze frame.

    So, you're probably wondering how we got here. r/jobwatchcanada was banned. This is the new community we will grow and work on to be a place where we can talk about businesses, consultancies and government policies that enable the TFW scams.

    Thank you for joining.

      Why was the sub banned? It didn't appear to break any rules

        They didn't really say. It technically said Rule 1 on the subreddit page, but i didn't get any notification or message why. It was just banned out of the blue. I appealed, but I think this spot will be better for us long term. There are probably lots of different ways it could've been banned. The comments (from every side) were wild, but i didn't think they were egregious enough to warrant a ban considering the crap i have seen on reddit. I dunno.

          @jobwatchcanada can you put Google Adsense on your pages so you can generate even a small amount of money for the work you do?

            I'm afraid my pages don't garner enough traffic (yet) to do ads. Instead i have a buymeacoffee page and an app i'm working on to help us share our business raves and boycotts. Speaking of which, we can keep track of businesses we love to support here!

              @jobwatchcanada just wanted to say well done on everything you’ve done. You’ve definitely moved the window of discussion on this topic.

                  As a funny follow up, I asked the reddit admins why they took it down and if it's common practice to ban subs without any sort of prior communication or warning. I haven't heard from them. I guess I'm not really surprised lol.
