That's a great question.
I think both of those aspects are possible. We definitely have a recruitment problem at the national level.
As I said, in general, when we look at all the specialized fields and sub-fields related to research, engineering and so on, we see one thing. We just don't have enough graduates in Canada to fill the labour shortages across the country. I don't think it's really feasible, so we have to look elsewhere.
It's also due to the fact that we are losing a lot of young Canadians in particular. We also lose people in mid-career or late-career. They go to the United States or elsewhere because they find the conditions there more attractive. Both sides see this as a very serious problem.
As I said, comparing the situation to the United States is not always fair, but that's the comparison people make every day to decide whether they're going to live here or move there.
