The story was covered in a paper by Dr. Alasdair Roberts titled "Making Policy Behind Closed Doors", which criticized the Department of Human Resources Development Canada for allegedly handling this project in such a way as to allow for fast-tracking of visa applications. The paper argued that the Canadian government handed decision-making to Software Human Resources Council and the Information and Communications Technology Council.[3] According to a 2003 story by Juliet O'Neill in The Ottawa Citizen, the Canadian federal government gave $1.1-million to the Software Human Resources Council for the development and dissemination of the Information Technology-industry labour market information. The story covered the lives of tech workers who lost their jobs after the disappearance of jobs in the tech industry in the early part of the 21st century. [4] In 2005, the Software Human Resources Council was supported by $2 million from the Canadian federal government[5] The Information and Communications Technology Council provides:
