Mr. Speaker, since our government was elected, unemployment has not decreased as much as we would have liked. Just last month the situation had markedly improved, statistically speaking, but it has now changed. According to the reports, 60,000 people who had all but given up looking for work re-entered the job market.
These were not people who had lost their jobs, but rather people who started looking again, believing they could find employment. It is a positive sign when people regain some confidence and get back into the labour force. We will continue to do our best. Our policies reflect this government's priority, which is job creation.
