I am not sure, Mr. Chair.
The methodology for counting jobs—part-time jobs, determining whether or not they're related to a particular project, downstream effects of spinoff jobs—is extremely complex. I don't think any country in the world--that I'm aware of--has developed a methodology to do that well. Therefore, we support the intent of the government to report on job creation using the macroeconomic modelling techniques. To do it any other way is fraught with so many problems that I doubt it would result in a reliable measure.
