I'm just waiting for Mr. Cuzner to finish.
First of all, thank you, witnesses, for being here and kicking off this study and giving us the valuable background. Particularly, the notes here are very well done.
There's a popularized notion being debunked here when I read:
The labour market performance of older Canadians has been relatively strong over the past decade as they experienced low levels of unemployment and the greatest increases in participation and employment when compared to other age groups.
I almost think that there has been a message out in public that we have a category of individuals reaching this point in their work life cycle who, all of a sudden, are out there unemployed in mass numbers. Now they are unemployed, as your numbers indicate, but in fact they are performing better than other categories.
Am I correct in debunking the myth that is perhaps out there in the public realm?
