We employ about 300,000 people, and it runs anywhere from executives to food scientists to marketing experts. The vast majority of our workers, in fact, are what we call front-line food workers, meaning the people you think of on the assembly line, the butchers. Those well-paying, stable jobs are quite accessible to people who may have just fundamental skill levels. However, we have vacancies across the board. One of the biggest areas where we have a problem is in fact in the skilled trades, where we see a huge deficit across the entire manufacturing sector. I will say that all of Canada's manufacturing industries are at great risk if we don't start to address that deficit.
