Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for being with us today.
I'll start with a brief introduction. I have 39 municipalities in my riding, including several small ones. I always say that, in municipalities, volunteers are one of our greatest assets. Our volunteers bring our municipalities to life and make them vibrant.
I'd like to take advantage of your presence here today to thank them for what they do across the country, but particularly in my riding, Richmond—Arthabaska.
Mr. Muir, you said that the current unemployment rate for young Canadians stands at 14%. That's a concern, and we're aware of it. On the other hand, some businesses are having trouble recruiting skilled workers.
How could you work to bridge the gap between the two?
