“Youth unemployment is at 14.3 percent. Young Canadians cannot find jobs or afford rent, food, and books. I blame the government's spending for hurting their future, and I want to know how much longer this will go on.”

“Mr. Speaker, these guys are so out of touch, they just do not give a rip about what Canadians are actually going through. Last fall, the Prime Minister told young Canadians they would have to “make sacrifices”. Well, he sure did mean it, did he not? New numbers show youth unemployment is at 14.3%. Young Canadians now face the toughest job market on record and struggle to afford rent, groceries and textbooks. No wonder young men and women lose hope. How can they ever get ahead? Young Canadians pay the highest price for Liberal debt, deficits and costly credit card budgets that mortgage their futures. Over a year in, how much more will the PM force young Canadians to sacrifice and suffer?”

“Canada lost jobs in April, and youth unemployment is high. Young people are losing work and opportunities. I want to know how much longer the government will let young people suffer for its mistakes.”

“Mr. Speaker, Canada lost 18,000 jobs in April. The unemployment rate is now 6.9%. Youth unemployment jumped to 14.3%. Young Canadians are unemployed longer than at any time since 1976. Instead of results, these Liberals have given us more job losses and more of the same. The Prime Minister told Canadians they must prepare for sacrifices, while young Canadians are already sacrificing jobs, opportunities and their futures. How much longer will the Liberal government force young people to sacrifice for its failures?”
