Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
On that note, coming from Manitoba, I think the people from Ontario would appreciate that.
I didn't ask Ms. McIntyre my previous question because her brief was pretty good and contained some good recommendations.
To Mr. Ferns, in your presentation you were talking about education and the way things have been changing with regard to students. You're saying that students are working more now than they did before, there are changes in courses, and some students are required to stay there an extra year or sometimes two years. I went to university about twenty years ago, and I remember working full-time in the summer and part-time. The people around me did that as well. Some people also changed courses. I think that's part of the education process, part of the learning process.
In Quebec we have what is called a CÉGEP, which is the equivalent of a junior college. Some of my friends made a career out of it and went from program to program--they were career programs. I think it's something that hasn't changed. You seem to think it's a new phenomenon, but I'm not so sure. It's just more prevalent today because the loans are getting higher, but I think it's always been there.
Do you agree or disagree, or did I misinterpret what you were saying?
