I'd like to thank everybody for being here today and taking time out of their busy schedules.
I just want to touch on the labour shortage. I know that in my riding we have a big food processing sector and they've partnered with the college to actually teach a course on food processing. It's about a two-month course. It's full capacity and everybody ends up being employed through the course.
I just wonder if the sector itself has thought of any programs like this or what it is doing to address the shortage if it's not getting any better. There are issues, and I guess we can fill jobs with temporary foreign workers but are there any programs that the actual industry has thought about?
