It is interesting to see that our students are preparing for the future.
My second question relates to your recommendation to increase the funding of Statistics Canada by $10 million for collecting and analyzing data on post-secondary education.
You do not mince words, especially on page 4 of your document where you refer to the OECD, and we all know that the parliamentary secretary of the Minister of Finance often refers to the OECD. You state that Canada was unable to provide data on 57 of 96 indicators used to compare countries on the basis of post-secondary education. This means that Canada's mark would only be 40% which, in any university, does not give you a degree. You also state that current facts do not provide us with good statistics.
I would like to know what you think of the decision of the government to cut the long-form census. Do you believe that this means that collecting good data that cannot be challenged—and we know how important that is for students and researchers—is not necessarily a priority for this government?
