In your advice to the minister, I'd like you to consider the fact that in many regions of the country, it's very difficult for us to keep young people. We particularly like this program because it gives us a chance to have them stay in the community and oftentimes make contacts that help them to perhaps, when they finish, come back and stay in the community. I hope you keep that as a criterion, because sometimes it can be very difficult for us if our children, our young people, don't get work in the community and then leave for Toronto and Ottawa and never come back.
