Obviously, we are losing workers, since they are retiring. A number of seasonal workers we knew well came to see us every year to apply for employment insurance, but we no longer see them. They worked as brush cutters. It's an extremely physically difficult job. When those workers get to around the age of 70, they have no choice but to retire.
We help a lot of workers between the ages of 70 and 75. Just yesterday, a 75-year-old woman called us because she needed help applying for employment insurance. It's wonderful that people can work that long. However, working in the forest is much more physical and difficult. Given the seasons and climate change, it's not always easy. Sometimes the work starts later or has to be stopped because of the rain in cases where it's impossible to work when it rains. Things like that disrupt the seasons.
