Adjournment Proceedings

An adjournment debate on youth unemployment and helping young people find work. Garnett Genuis of the Conservatives said young Canadians are struggling to find jobs and buy homes, pointed to high taxes, red tape, hiring costs, and immigration and training rules as contributing factors, and asked the government to adopt the Conservative plan for youth jobs and to consider a committee report on the topic. Yasir Naqvi for the Liberals described the government’s spending on training, including $6 billion to train skilled trades workers and $2.9 billion for provincial job programs, and cited the Canada summer jobs program, noting almost 600 summer jobs in his own riding. Both members opened and closed by exchanging good wishes for the summer and thanking House staff.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
