Louise Chabot at the Human Resources, Skills and Social Development and the Status of Persons with Disabilities Committee

Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thanks very much to both of you, witnesses from the beautiful Laurentians region. Your testimony is relevant to the purpose of our study, which is simple: to review the funding of the Canada summer jobs program because it has undergone a major cut and to see how we can improve it. I don't think that any member of our committee doubts the value of this program. The task for us is to see how we can improve it.

Ms. Thomas, have you been using the Canada summer jobs program for many years?
