Thank you very much.

So the government is trying to understand what's working well and what can be improved. That's good. The department is gathering those data, not Statistics Canada.

I have another question. My riding took advantage of this program for 15 years or so. Of course, the government doubled the number of program beneficiaries in 2015, but cuts may be made one day. That's what happens over time.

Is it better to have more employees working fewer weeks, or fewer employees working more weeks?
