Mr. Speaker, I will give an example of what the federal system is doing for young people to help them get employment.
We have worked out a series of partnerships with the private sector where we are able to provide internships this year for close to 25,000 young Canadians to get major training as they move from school to work. We are investing our money in developing good skills to meet the job requirements so that they can make that important bridge between formal education and the workplace.
Fortunately, I was able to work in co-operation with the ministry of education in Quebec and Chrysler Corporation just a month ago to sign an agreement that will give us a new program of internship on car maintenance and repair in Quebec through a partnership. That to me illustrates how if we work together in partnership we can really help our young people, as opposed to always trying to split things apart.
