I, myself, am the president of a company that provides services to the majority of evaluators and advisors in Quebec. I cannot comment on the situation in Ontario, but in Quebec, it is not easy to find people to work in this field. There are consequences when programs of this nature are cut. In the wake of these announcements, we had to lay off 30 people. We spent thousands of dollars on training advisors and developing their skills, and we had to let them go to work in other fields.
I cannot say for sure that there are fewer advisors in Quebec, but I can say many businesses like mine have been directly affected. The way we see it, we have an opportunity to have a business that provides other services. The fact remains, however, that as a result of these announcements, we are going to lose that expertise in energy efficiency in terms of rental property owners.
