Mr. Speaker, let me repeat for the hon. member that 268,000 new jobs have been created since the beginning of this year, nearly doubling the number of jobs created over the same period.
In case the hon. member did not understand me the first time, the help wanted index is an indicator of where the employment numbers will be in the future. They have hit the highest level in seven years.
The prospects look very positive for the employment numbers. We will continue as a government to pursue the policies to ensure that employment is first and foremost in the numbers.
