Absolutely.
One of the goals of the national shipbuilding strategy is to build a sustainable marine industry in Canada, and so avoid the traditional boom and bust of shipbuilding industries. Really, in order to build that industry of the future that we want to see, we have to have a representative workforce. I know someone mentioned earlier that bringing diversity in brings diversity of ideas, and that is something we're really looking at. We have experienced shipbuilders working with us who have said that it's great bringing in female tradespeople, that they have great attention to detail, that they bring a new outlook to the workforce, so that's something we're certainly interested in. The investment for us is really for the industry. It diversifies our workforce, but it also helps the trades industry in general.
One observation the Nova Scotia Community College has made is that even having the female students in the trades classes exposes their male classmates to women at the top of their class in welding and in metal fabrication, and when they go to the workforce they know that these are their equals coming in. That builds the workforce that we want to have and the future that we want to see in the trades industry, in the marine industry, and the shipbuilding industry across the board.
It's certainly a long-term outlook and it's part of building that entire workforce.
