Ms. Spinks, thank you very much for your testimony.
I was very happy to hear you mention True Patriot Love. A certain leader, a candidate I'm supporting in the Conservative race, is a founding member of the board of directors, so thank you for that. I feel as though you might have had a spy cam in my house, seeing the interactions between my spouse and me over the last few months.
I find legitimacy in all the responses you gave, but what really breaks my heart is that in regard to the testimony of all our witnesses here today, we're talking about jobs, programs and how the jobs and supports are going to be distributed, but from that we need a strong economic recovery plan. The Conservatives have said over and over again that we are the only nation in the G7 that doesn't have an economic recovery plan.
I want all Canadians to receive the supports they so require. I want young Canadians like Isaac to have good jobs to go to, and I'm very concerned that we are not seeing an economic recovery plan fast enough to allow for all of that.
Ms. Spinks, those are a few comments on that. I really appreciate your commentary. Thank you very much.
I'll go back to Mr. Charters, Owen as I've been calling you, if I may, please. I wanted to give you an opportunity to explain your program, your year-round Canada youth jobs program, and to expand on that. I wanted to get your opinion in addition to further explaining the program you envision. Have you seen the CERB negatively impact the youth initiative? Isaac has talked about how young people want to enter the workforce. They want to be in the workforce but have you seen any influence on youth employment?
Could you perhaps explain a bit more of your program and then comment a bit on the CERB, please?
