Youth

Question period focused on youth employment and affordability. The Conservatives said government spending has left young Canadians worse off, citing youth unemployment above 14% — more than double the national rate — job losses this year, and a $175-million loss on a diamond mine that entered creditor protection, and asked why young people are paying for the government’s failures. The Liberals replied that the economy is growing, wages are up and inflation is down, noted 6,600 new youth jobs projected in Alberta, said they are making historic investments in young people while reducing the deficit, and invited the opposition to work with them.Written by AI from the debate.
