Karim Bardeesy, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Industry
“Young people are having a hard time because of COVID and the trade war. Our government is helping them build job skills by creating 100,000 apprenticeships and 32,000 summer census jobs.”
“Mr. Speaker, before I came to this place, I taught undergraduate students for 15 years, and I know the number that COVID did and now the trade war is doing on them. What do we do when a number is being done on young people? We build them up and help them with hard skills and soft skills. That is why we have the team Canada strong plan with 100,000 apprenticeships. This summer we have 32,000 jobs with Statistics Canada in the census, a project that the party opposite would be first to cancel. That is how we build up the skills to get the kinds of careers that our students want and need, and that is why we are there for them.”
