Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the hon. member for that question.
I remember that way back my community of Cambridge was considered to be the shoe industry capital of Canada. The shoe industry died out and the high technology industry moved in. Only five years ago the unemployment rate was 11.2% and today it is 7.8%, but it is still too high. Fortunately for my community the high technology industry is growing and prospering. I understand the situation is not the same in other parts of the country.
With this fiscal approach to economic growth, I believe that the private sector will continue to create jobs. Hopefully jobs will be created in the hon. member's community as well.
