“Moving to other provinces can help young people find good work experience. Does my colleague agree that letting workers move easily helps youth employment?”
“Mr. Speaker, I am going to share a brief story, even though my time is limited. This summer, while visiting organizations participating in the Canada summer jobs program, I met a young man from New Brunswick who was working in Longueuil. I asked him whether he had come to Quebec because job opportunities were scarce in New Brunswick. He replied that this was not the case, that he was simply there to discover Quebec and that he loved gaining experience in other parts of the country. Mr. Speaker, the question I would like to put to my colleague, for whom I have great respect and whose work I sincerely appreciate—I will not deny that—is the following: Does my colleague believe that mobility can contribute to youth employment?”
