Mr. Speaker, I would not try to pretend that this is a panacea that is going to solve every problem.
In fact there was a young lady named Jessica who was the master of ceremonies at the recent new office opening of Community Living in Mississauga. She has had some difficulties in obtaining employment.
The point is there are many other examples and I could share many more. It is unfortunate if one or two of them did not work out but that does not mean we should throw out the baby with the bathwater. I certainly would not single out one company such as Blockbuster over another.
The program I am talking about is an employment resource centre which operates through the auspices and offices of Community Living in my community of Mississauga. I am assuming once again that most members would have a branch of Community Living within their communities or nearby. I would encourage them to meet with their Community Living volunteers and staff to see if they can find ways to help increase employment of these young people in their communities.
