I have a question for Ms. Watts-Rynard. I come from British Columbia and we had a very successful apprenticeship program that went on for generations. It was cancelled in the early 2000s. It then seemed to have led to a bit of a manufactured crisis in not having enough ticketed and tradespeople. Aside from a general bias in the school system or where some parents are turning young people away from the trades, does your association have any understanding as to why not just B.C. but many other provinces turned away from what was a good apprenticeship program?
I have a second follow-up if you can answer that one relatively briefly.
