I guess there are a couple of issues. First of all, there would need to be some coordination. And if you're asking what it would cost to create a sector-like organization to manage this, I would say it would probably be somewhere in the neighbourhood of $300,000 per year over five years, similar to how sector councils are financed in Canada.
The other issue, of course, is the development of a strategy. That would presumably have to be financed in another way, in addition to having some sort of leadership to coordinate that effort.
Likewise, in terms of project funding, I've suggested in the brief that it would seem to me that provinces and territories that are moving forward in recognizing the prior learning of.... For example, in Nunavut, their indigenous communities have very definite targets on assessing the prior learning of local people so they can be put into jobs within the government. Those kinds of targeted projects, I think, require funding, as well.
It could come under a work skills strategy. It could come under adult learning and literacy. But I think those three areas would require dedicated funding, separate funding, for all three.
