Bill C-50 and the sustainable jobs framework contemplate a partnership council that will bring workers, industry and other interests together to address the skills and labour market programming needs to make that transition.
We can similarly fashion institutions that bring workers and their organizations into the process. There is an AI advisory council currently. Unfortunately, it's constituted exclusively by industry and academics. There are no civil society, labour or human rights advocacy organizations, etc.
That would be a starting point—to create a body that can identify skills needs and programs that are required, collaboratively, and instill some of that social licence that's required. Then, I think having sectoral tables as well that identify industry and sector-specific needs in response to AI development and the digitalization of work would take us a long way down the road.
