The majority of training, including for Red Seal workers, is jurisdictionally the responsibility of the provinces and territories, and we are there as a supportive partner.
First of all, we transfer $3 billion a year to provinces and territories to help with training. The training occurs in a number of different ways. Some of the institutions, you might be familiar with. Youth Employment Services, for example, would be supported in part by federal funds. Of course, provinces and territories have contributions of their own to skills training in a variety of different ways. We also support them through additional top-ups, as I mentioned. I won't reinform you about that. I think you heard my answer around EI measures.
Then, finally, we partner with provinces and territories in a number of important ways on our youth employment strategy. We augment transfers through funding youth employment opportunities across the country. Student work placements are often coordinated through provincial and territorial organizations. We work very closely with them to make sure we're not duplicating and stepping on each other's toes.
What we're trying to offer is really an approach where people have.... I like to say that every door is the right door, and no matter where someone goes in, they're going to find supports. Obviously, there are still gaps. That's why we have the spring economic update, with the $6-billion investment in Red Seal trades.
