Patty Hajdu, Minister of Jobs and Families and Minister responsible for the Federal Economic Development Agency for Northern Ontario
“We are working to help all Canadians get good jobs and the skills they need for them. There are jobs available. I would be happy to contact this woman directly to tell her about these programs and opportunities.”
“Mr. Speaker, I do not know Candace’s background, but I can tell members this. We are working hard to make sure every single Canadian has a pathway into good jobs. Not only that, there are great jobs out there. We are making sure that people have the skills that they need to take up those good jobs. I would be happy to correspond with Candace and tell her about some of the work that we are doing and some of the opportunities that exist across this country. If we cannot all stand up for people like Candace, then we are really not doing our job. I would say that the member could guide that constituent to— Some hon. members: Oh, oh!”
