Oral Questions
Employment
During discussion the Conservatives raised concerns about high youth unemployment and the number of temporary foreign workers, arguing this is driving down wages and making it harder for young Canadians to find jobs. The Liberals responded that youth employment has increased recently, the number of temporary foreign workers is down, and there are legitimate labour needs in some regions and industries. Mostly political point-scoring with stats rather than discussing any actual actions or policy changes to address the issues raised.
