16.0 Relationship between the parties and non-liability of Canada


16.1 The hiring, management, supervision and control of the Project are the sole and absolute responsibility of the Employer. The Employer is not in
any way authorized to make a promise, agreement or contract on behalf of Canada. This Agreement is a funding agreement only, not a
contract for services or a contract of service or employment. Canada's responsibility is limited to providing financial assistance to the Employer
towards the Eligible Expenditures. The parties hereto declare that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as creating a partnership, an
employer-employee, or agency relationship between them. The Employer shall not represent itself as an agent, employee or partner of
Canada.
16.2 Nothing in this Agreement creates any undertaking, commitment or obligation by Canada respecting additional or future funding of the Project
beyond the Project Period, or that exceeds the maximum contribution specified in the document “Calculation of Approved Canada Summer
Jobs Contribution Amount”. Canada shall not be liable for any loan, capital lease or other long-term obligation which the Employer may enter

relation to the Project.

negligent act, omission or delay on the part of the Employer or its employees or agents in connection with anything purported to be or required
to be provided by or done by the Employer pursuant to this Agreement or done otherwise in connection with the implementation of the Project.

19.1 No cost incurred by the Employer in relation to a Participant who is a member of the Immediate Family of the Employer or who is a member of
the Immediate Family of an officer or director of the Employer, is eligible for reimbursement under the Agreement. If Canada is satisfied, and
agrees in writing before the commencement of the Job, that the hiring of the Participant was not the result of favouritism by reason of
membership in the Immediate Family of the Employer, officer or director, as the case may be, the costs may be eligible for reimbursement.

of such right and, furthermore, partial or limited exercise of a right conferred upon Canada shall not prevent Canada in any way from later
