Thanks very much for being here today.
We've heard from other witnesses as well. Certainly when we were out east we heard what became pretty similar to what you were saying. Cliff Murphy from Cape Breton Building Trades echoed your comments that the problems revolve around gaps in mobility. It seems if you have a Red Seal certification, accreditation recognition, you're okay to travel. But recognizing apprenticeship—and the committee is going to delve into this more with a subsequent study. We're losing kids. The success rate of the young Canadians who take a trade and then follow that path through to the end and become a journeyman in a particular trade is not great. Those are the gaps.
How can we look at accreditation recognition before we hit the Red Seal or apprenticeships or whatever? We know the government is going to say this is a provincial responsibility, but there should be some kind of a national role.
Could I get your comments on that, how we tie that together?
