My next question involves young people with challenges.
Inclusion B.C. came to my office today. I'm sure they have gone to many of our other MPs' offices. One thing they have been doing very successfully is matching the skills of those young people, including adults, actually, with potential jobs. At the same time they're going to rural areas.
Very often young people don't want to leave their comfort zone. They want to stay. What they mean by a good job is to be very comfortable, sitting in front of a computer, with air conditioning. They never want to leave their comfort zone. There's a challenge of matching skills to jobs. There are people who don't have the skills, but then there are jobs looking for people. That's a mismatch, as we're sure, in some remote areas.
What I'm trying to say is that there used to be an employer panel for people with disabilities, including youth, of course. That was very successful because you had champions who were hiring people with challenges, yet they were very good employees. They proved it is a good business practice to hire those with challenges. They are punctual. They value their jobs. They're excellent. Instead of being a so-called burden to those employers, they actually reach out to other employers. I don't want to mention which one of the coffee giants is hiring a lot of those people. I won't mention names here.
Do you think that the federal government should encourage that pattern? I don't think that it's still on, still there.
