I just want briefly to ask if there is a better way. Obviously, if there is a shortage that means that.... I know that in our first nations there is overpopulation. They are the fastest-growing demographic.

Is there something the government could be doing better to ensure that Canadians are trained in order to fill some of that shortage?
