Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for being here today.
I am going to come back to a point that Ms. Toneguzzo raised and that was raised by two witnesses who appeared during the first part of the meeting. In Canada, it is within the aboriginal population that we see the greatest demographic growth. Many apprenticeships are available in areas with large aboriginal populations. However, aboriginal people are underemployed and underrepresented in apprenticeship programs. You already talked about obstacles and programs that could be adapted. This morning, Mr. Bégin and Mr. Blakely said that programs needed to be adapted for aboriginal people.
Mrs. Toneguzzo, I would like to hear your comments on this subject. Do you think it would be appropriate to consult aboriginal groups to find out how programs could be better adapted to the reality of young aboriginal people?
