It's an excellent question.
These are key positions, not just in the defence industry but for the economy in general. Given some of the other areas of ambition that both this government and the provinces have engaged in, there are significant demands on technicians in high-tech fields.
In those areas, we continue to see that those graduates have very high and positive outcomes when they continue, but these are clearly in-demand fields, and not just for today. It looks as though that will be the case going forward.
As labour market information becomes clearer on additional demands, it may become important that we continue to fund and expand those kinds of roles—given the demand across the country, across sectors and across focus areas.
