We definitely are. One person in particular, the coordinator of the Quebec Literacy Working Group, has spent her whole life in literacy. As of this week, her job expires and she has nothing. She has so much valued experience that she cannot be replaced. We can't expect her to wait until funding comes through. She's a single mother with two children, so she has to go on.
Yes, we're losing a lot of good, trained people because of the instability. It's not because they don't want to do it. It becomes a mission; it becomes a vocation when you become involved in adult literacy. But they just, for economic reasons, have to move on.
