I'll ask two questions, and you can answer them in however much time you want to spend on each.
Some of the concerns that you've brought forward aren't dissimilar to challenges that Canadians across the country are experiencing, such as the attrition rate in apprenticeships because of having to go out and sustain a life and make more money to continue to provide for themselves and their families. That's something that we've heard from other witnesses who aren't necessarily new immigrants.
However, your challenges have another layer of challenge, and I appreciate the line of questioning that my colleague Monsieur Lapointe had put forward with regard to what specifically can be done to address those challenges.
There's a suggestion of training trainers so that there's a cultural sensitivity around the trainers. That idea makes a great deal of sense, but I'd like you to try to eke out.... Sometimes presenting the problems suggests a solution. Where do you see the federal role in that?
Then the other question is equally good. It was brought out yesterday, or the last day we had witnesses. The Canadian Association of Manufacturers and Exporters said that they're seeing true success in some of the bigger corporations—for example, Bombardier. They have good success with apprenticeships. Is your group actively engaged with those bigger organizations or corporations that seem to understand the importance of sustained training? Do you have an ongoing dialogue with some of those bigger corporations that do it well?
I'll let you answer. Thank you.
