Thank you Mr. Chairman.
Thank you for your presentation. I come from New Brunswick, the Moncton area in particular. As you may know, the Université de Moncton is a very important institution for Acadians. Recently, we announced a joint program with the Université de Sherbrooke. It is a new agreement to train doctors. It is a cooperative agreement between two major universities.
I am proud of it. I certainly know that you are aware of the level of support for training bilingual doctors and health workers.
I have a few questions for you. Do you think that financial support for programs of instruction for our young people is inadequate, not only in New Brunswick—I am aware of these problems—but also elsewhere in the country, outside Quebec?
The answer to these questions would help me to really understand whether there is greater need in the provinces and whether we should give our support.
My second question is the following. Is it true that many graduates work in Quebec even though they received their training in New Brunswick, for example? In New Brunswick there is a problem that should not even exist. Life is great in New Brunswick. The cost of living is much lower and we all live near the ocean. However, we know that salaries are much lower than they are in Ontario, Alberta and Quebec.
Those are my two questions.
