Yes, I would agree. I've seen it and it would.
On the research side, there's clearly a gap between what I call the supply side of the urban aboriginal labour market and the demand side of industry and jobs. I think that's something that probably is going to come up in the Canada job grant. It would be great to see how, as Mr. Chartrand pointed out, the aboriginal side gets portrayed within the job grant. I don't think there's yet enough detail to say.
At the National Association of Friendship Centres we have an urban aboriginal knowledge network, which is a $2.5 million SSHRC grant, which is looking at issues in the urban environment for aboriginal people.
I'll try to be quicker. I see you looking at me.
We've also made overtures toward the department to put in place under their special projects initiative looking at the supply side of the labour market, data collection on that. It's actually incredibly weak, and it's very dispersed. It's not uniform at all. So in there, there needs to be research and the ability at a local level to connect supply and demand.
I'll stop there, Mr. Chair.
