I can give you a personal example.
I have a son who looked like he was heading to university. He was a computer analyst. He was really good, I must say. He was employed by National Defence, but one day, the budget was cut and his position was eliminated. He came home and announced that he was going to attend Le Chantier. Physically, he really was not the type to be working in construction. He spent his time inside, sitting at a computer.
I asked him if he was sure about his choice and he said that he was. He was sure of himself and off he went to enrol at Le Chantier where was trained. Now he is the happiest guy in the world. He works year round on a construction site. I was blown away by it all.
This is a concrete example of a kid who came out of grade 11 with an overall average of 94%, who got a $3,000 scholarship for college, but who ended up not going to university. He has made a success of himself by taking this training and today he is earning a living and building his own house. He is as happy as a clam.
As for women, we trained female electricians at the Commission scolaire de Laval and then we hired them. They work for us. Two years ago, as part of a staff recognition evening, one of those women was recognized for the quality of her work, by her peers, no less. That is quite the achievement. I say that we need to keep doing this. We really must value women all the time.
