I think, obviously, employers are key to apprenticeships. It is demand driven, and an apprentice cannot begin a program unless they are hired by an employer. At the federal level, there is the federal tax credit for employers. Provinces have also undertaken a number of initiatives. For example, in Ontario, Alberta, and B.C., they have similar measures to encourage employers to participate in apprenticeships. I know, in particular in Alberta, the provincial government has done a lot of work in the oil and gas sector to encourage employers to take on more apprentices, and they've seen some positive results there as well.
