I think the economic and labour realities bear themselves out. The demand for these skilled labour participants is certainly not felt anywhere more than in the province of Alberta.
I can certainly attest to the demand for those spots in post-secondary education. Our technical institutes, such as the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology and the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology, are routinely taking wait-list applicants to gain entry to these positions. I think that labour attraction, moving from one geographic area to another in Canada, certainly would bear out the demand for these very valuable skilled labour positions.
Anything the government can do in areas where there are pinch points as far as labour need for skilled labour is concerned would be welcomed, particularly in our province.
