In our part of the country, as I suppose in others, we have a demographic issue with people living longer and declining birth rates. We also have a seasonal economy and not as many good-paying, year-round jobs. The EI program has had a devastating effect on that. We see an exodus of young talent west to better-paying jobs.
My question for you is, in the course of developing your programs, is regional economic disparity an element in terms of developing the strategy or the delivery?
