It's nice to be back. Folks, it's nice to see you as well.
I will just get right into it. In chapter 8, section 8.53, I was alarmed to hear some of the words being used:
25 percent of geographic areas do not have reliable National Household Survey data available for their use.
That is part of the process of going to the voluntary survey, obviously, when you talk about a 94% to 69% drop, which we've already talked about.
One of the things I find alarming is that, when you look at policies such as, say, the temporary foreign worker program, you have to come up with your labour market opinion in order to do this. I'll use an example that comes from the person I'm replacing, Ms. Yvonne Jones from Labrador. The unemployment rate in her area is around 5% or 6%, but in western Newfoundland it's well above that. It's around 13% to 15%. If you lump all this in together, as a result, you have businesses closing down in Labrador because they cannot find employees. This is a problem because we don't have a true reflection there.
To Mr. Ferguson, I think that's what you're pointing out in the survey. Is that correct?
