I did have one more question.

I want to thank my honourable colleague for arranging for me to have one or two additional minutes.

My question is about literacy. This morning Larry Hubich, of the Saskatchewan Federation of Labour, said that literacy is a barrier to completing apprenticeships. That's one of the things he's seeing. Can you tell us about your experience in that regard?

I don't know if Mr. McKinlay or Mr. Hanley wants to speak about that.
