Yes, I think they contacted me because of their proposal, because of my experience with the Canada Service Corps and because of the importance of youth service and what youth were facing in the middle of a pandemic. How could we be creative in that moment to be able to give opportunities?
I had worked a lot on the Canada service program. I knew a lot about how the pilots had gone in various parts of the country using different organizations. Although I can't speak to their motivations, I think that was part of our role, to try to find solutions and come up with innovative ways to respond to the COVID challenges.
