I can speak to that.
There are about 330 registered apprentices across the country, and about 80% of those are in the Red Seal trades. With regard to completions and the completion rate, one of the issues we've been looking at is that the completion rates have been flat over the past two decades or so, but we have seen an increase in the number of completions over the past three years, and that is even despite the recession. So that is a positive outcome.
Since we launched the apprenticeship incentive grant and the apprenticeship completion grant in 2006 and 2009, respectively, the provinces and territories have stepped up and put in place a number of other complementary measures to support apprentices. We think that is also having an effect in helping apprentices to get through the system and complete their apprenticeships.
