So there is room for improvement.
When we travelled out west, in Fort McMurray for example, people from the social sector rather than the industrial sector told us that the problem was not that young people were not interested in working where there are mining activities, but that the reason was that there is a lack of housing cooperatives and no basic public transit system.
Even if someone is offered a job that pays $30 an hour and requires little training, working in that location will be very costly for the person. Since the living costs are very high, even having a good salary does not make the job profitable. These people from the social sector seemed to believe that this has become a problem.
