Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to say hello to my colleagues and thank the witnesses for being here.
Mr. Thivierge, you mentioned earlier that for veterans, the salary, rewards and benefits aren't that important. You said that veterans are actually motivated by their desire to serve, just like when they were in the armed forces.
What we've heard is that the unemployment rate is 4.5% among veterans, compared to 6.6% in the Quebec and Canadian populations. Also, veterans are apparently more likely to express job dissatisfaction if they're not employed to their full potential.
Can you help me understand that?
On the one hand, unemployment among veterans is low, although I don't have the latest data with me. On the other hand, their interest in a job doesn't match their aspirations.
