Yes. Well, you're right.
The environment is indeed very interesting.
However, we are competing with many other industries involved in the programming and computer fields. Telecommunications and information technology industries are huge. They are much bigger than the video game industry. The level of competition is high.
Moreover, few people think of enrolling in skilled trades such as the level designer program, which is fairly specialized. Those who want to enrol in such programs are not necessarily accepted. We are talking about highly sophisticated professions, which are experiencing a shortage, especially at intermediate, senior and expert levels.
Canada's industry is young; it's perhaps 15 years old. It's difficult to find talented employees with 10 or more years of experience who are experts in their field. There aren't too many such individuals in Canada. Some junior employees with 10 years of experience are currently coming up. They are found in a growing number of companies. We are no longer alone in the area. There are so many other companies. Many of those experienced individuals decide to start their own business. So companies are competing for those talented employees' services. All those factors—professional specialization, competition and experience—are contributing to the current shortage.
