Adjournment Proceedings

An adjournment debate on youth unemployment. Garnett Genuis (Conservative) cited a youth unemployment rate of 14.3 percent and urged the government to adopt recommendations from a multi-party committee report based on Conservative ideas, including tax cuts, changes to immigration rules, penalties for companies hiring illegal workers, and support for the trades. Leslie Church (Liberal) replied that the government is investing in training young people, citing $6 billion to train 100,000 skilled trades workers over five years and paid work placements for students. Genuis argued that government spending has not lowered the youth unemployment rate, and Church pointed to training programs, including a visit to the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology.Written by AI from the debate.
