Where can people find jobs who don't have a highschool diploma?

Basically, it would be the same type of work that a high school student can obtain. May include fast food (McDonald’s, Tim Hortons etc.), grocery stores and restaurants, and more than likely minimum wage

Dietary Aids and and housekeeping require no further education

it maybe hard to get on to hospital yes wages would be good .  
you could also try housekeeping, laundry at some of the hotels .

Maple Leaf Pork is probably one of the better paying options with opportunity for advancement to a higher skill rate. After your first (I want to say) six months, you get benefits which include dental, and prescription coverage.  
It is full time with paid stats. Some departments offer a fair bit of overtime. Other departments don't have overtime. They never switch your times either. You work the same timeslot unless you apply for a different position in the plant. Paid 2 week vacation after 1 yr (first year is unpaid vacation). 3 weeks after 5 yrs. 4 weeks paid vacation after 10 yrs.  
If you choose to apply, just go out to the plant. Go through the entrance marked EMPLOYEE ENTRANCE and to the left is the security desk where you can get an application.

Harder now than it used to be I think. I got a government job at 18, gradually worked my way up and when I retired just before 60 I was making $35/hour with 6 weeks paid vacation, and I walked away with a really good pension. Now a lot of the job offerings require college or university degrees, even if the job duties don't really require it (same work I was doing now calls for some university as a prerequisite-just to weed out a few applicants I believe)
