Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you for the question. It's very important to recognize that different areas face different challenges. One of the key things we strongly believe about partnerships, funding models and programs is that they recognize local realities. For example, in Nova Scotia, we have a strong African Nova Scotian population. We have rural and urban communities, and we have small centres. We also have the Acadian population. There isn't one program that is going to serve all of those needs.
In addition to what Mr. Nighbor said about consistency in funding and programs, we agree that it's about investing in local, on-the-ground organizations or partnerships of any kind that actually understand the realities that youth in those regions face. That's going to allow for greater uptake and greater results than a one-size-fits-all approach.
