Could I just suggest that certainly the lack of Canadian certification is an extremely important aspect, but the lack of Canadian experience, or at least how prospective employers view the lack of Canadian experience, is very important. You could have all the Canadian papers you like, all the equivalencies you like, yet you still aren't going to get a job. That's why I'm bringing in the NGOs and the level of poverty.

Thank you.
