Labour

In question period on labour, the Bloc Québécois asked about the six-billion-dollar workforce training investment in the federal economic update, saying job training is Quebec’s jurisdiction under a 30-year agreement and asking that Quebec receive its share with no conditions. The Liberal minister replied that the investment responds to an expected need for 80,000 skilled construction workers in Quebec over five years and said the government will respect Quebec’s authority while working with the province. A further exchange saw the Bloc repeat its position and the minister comment on the Bloc’s approach to Quebec–Ottawa relations, saying the government prefers to focus on delivering training.Written by AI from the debate.
