Adjournment Proceedings

In adjournment proceedings, Garnett Genuis (Conservative) raised the difficulty young Canadians face finding work and asked the government to adopt his party’s four-part plan: lowering taxes and red tape for businesses, changing the immigration system, supporting job training, and building homes near jobs. Parliamentary Secretary Jennifer McKelvie (Liberal) replied that the government is making large investments in youth employment and training, including summer jobs, student work placements, and skilled trades programs. Genuis argued the government had cut grants for trades workers that Conservatives introduced and later brought them back under a new name, and repeated his call for the Conservative plan. McKelvie said the investments help young people build skills and keep the economy strong.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
