If we were masters of our own program, we could charge $4,000 rather than $8,000. That would be an incentive for low-income people. Training is an investment. If you have to invest $16,000 to become qualified as an early childhood educator, and you can only hope to earn $17 or $20 per hour afterwards, it is easy to do the math.
I want to raise another point to back up what Mr. Généreux said just now about bilateral agreements in education.
I have been the president for eight years. In those eight years, our budget envelope has not increased. If you consider the increase in the cost of living, we are in the hole. The demands increase but we have less money to operate with. At some stage, there will be a tipping point. Before that happens, we have to increase the budgets for the bilateral agreements too.
