Certainly, Canadians writ large are feeling the pressures of the cost of living.
In the tourism industry, what we've seen over the last number of years is a significant increase in the number of full-time, full-year jobs, which is certainly helping in places like Parry Sound—Muskoka.
That is why, for those 12% who are still in the seasonal or temporary category, it's very important that we have a really good employment insurance program to help those individuals bridge the gap between seasons.
One of the things we have found as an industry is that when we have great people working for us, who help us deliver outstanding experiences for our visitors, it helps put places like Parry Sound—Muskoka on the map for international guests.
What we need to make sure of, though, is that we are providing the appropriate supports for those workers when they are off on leave. As an industry, we are constantly looking at ways we can improve access to programming and access to supports for those workers, but if there's no money coming in the door for a business, they can't continue to pay that worker. That's why programs like employment insurance are incredibly important.
