Thanks.

I'm going to respond in English; I'm sorry.

I appreciate what you're saying, but as I said before, right now it's the employed who are being attracted to the jobs out in western Canada. What we're saying is let's try to match the unemployed with the jobs. We're not saying we should force anybody who is unemployed to move to these jobs. We're saying provide incentives for the unemployed to move to these jobs, as opposed to the people in your riding who are employed and are the ones leaving right now.
