Mr. Lapierre, I can try to give you a partial answer. The department has conducted a number of pilot projects, and many studies have been done. You're right to say that there are unemployed workers in the softest sectors of the economy.
However, it should also be noted that the sectoral councils program has definitely put sectoral councils in place in the textile and clothing industries. Those councils have stopped the bleeding so that employees can have access to technical training, basic training, so that they at least have transferrable essential skills in their industry.
There have been losses in the clothing industry. They're declining now, but the remaining sectors and businesses will be looking for much more advanced and profitable markets, as a result of which employees have a better chance of staying in that field.
As for the textile industry, Canada went looking for more active and upper end sectors. Jobs in the textile industry are very well paid. The employment floor and ceiling have remained stable in Canada: approximately 50,000 jobs.
