I think if you look at the gaps, there are plenty of them. Simply put, if you look at--because we're talking about human resources, the first thing is language. We have now in this province provided language support training for adults up to a level three. But in Ontario it's supported all the way up to a level seven. We really would like to see that new Canadians coming to B.C. would be supported in the same way as they would if they went to Ontario. So that's the first thing.
We've already talked very extensively about the prior work experience and foreign credentials. One thing I need to supplement too is that this is not just a government issue. It's not just a trade organization or a professional organization situation. It is also a commercial industry situation. People come here wanting a local job, let's say in a factory or for a service provider, be it in the insurance business or the financial business or what not. Generally, they're told they do not have Canadian experience. And if they don't get a job in Canada, how can they get that?
I think one of the things the government can also do is provide tax incentives for people to hire new Canadians for their first job, for their first six months, to give them a chance. Give them some incentives. Currently there is no incentive for anyone to hire a new Canadian.
