Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My questions will be directed towards Kerry's Place.
First, I want to thank you for the invaluable support that you provide to our communities on a not-for-profit basis, and I certainly appreciate having spent the time at your office to get a better understanding of how the Canada summer jobs program is working for you.
In your presentation here, there's a section where it says, “Overall, the issues above affect the quantity and quality of candidates we are able to recruit. For example, this year we were approved for 13 positions but were only able to fill 5.”
How does the timeline between the employer approval and the date for the latest job to end impact the ability to find youth to fill vacancies for the summer?
