Mr. Speaker, I wish to draw the attention of the House to Canada Career Week, November 4 through November 10.
By supporting the communities, Human Resources Development Canada and its partners are contributing to the organization of events to provide our fellow citizens with the opportunity to learn more about various careers, retraining opportunities and the necessary steps to take to improve their future.
By pooling their efforts, people can achieve a degree of personal satisfaction that leads to furthering their education, increasing their earnings, and reducing poverty and dependence on social programs, which in turn benefits the entire community.
In the spirit of Canada Career Week, I encourage all of my colleagues to take an interest in the initiatives in their regions and to encourage people to learn more about career opportunities everywhere in Canada.
