Absolutely. It's a very narrow scope. It is very much limited to how labour market adjustments take place and what the agreements allow for. Within that, there are obviously targeted populations that are identified in a way that's actually trying to address those people living in poverty who need those kinds of skills, and so on.
I don't think, in a sense, that it actually has a very long-term perspective of how to do that and how to build the layers of it. It seems to me that under labour market agreements between the provinces and the federal government, the transfer of the resources is still based on how governments and how the provincial governments actually define that environment and where their priorities are. So they're not tying the LMA directly to a strategy on poverty. It is unscoped and it's not necessarily going to be that useful.
Again, it's a cycle of how LMAs are actually put into place. It's always based on a three-year timeframe based on an environmental scan provided by the province. If it's out of context with the poverty strategy, it will not necessarily address that issue. That's one of the issues. I continue to hear that. It's not connected to the poverty strategy. It's in isolation of that, tied directly to certain communities that are deemed to be important in terms of priority areas, but not identified in terms of a long-term strategy.
