Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good morning, everyone, especially the witnesses. I thank them very much for being here.
Last week, we heard from other witnesses who addressed the issue of unemployment among young people from diverse backgrounds. When I talk about diversity, I'm referring to various aspects, whether it be someone's gender, ethnicity, religion or even disability, among other things.
Ms. Watts‑Rynard, I'd like to hear your opinion on that. Why is the unemployment rate for diverse youth more than double the national average? What do you think are the main causes, and how can employers be part of the situation?
