Mr. Speaker, our government has provided unprecedented investments in training to get Canadians back to work. Our government has invested over $4 billion in training which has helped 1.2 million Canadians find new jobs.
We have provided significant additional funding under the targeted initiative for older workers in both New Brunswick and Quebec. New Brunswick has received $2 million and Quebec $13 million to help unemployed older workers in vulnerable communities.
As I stated earlier, the EI system provides the most generous conditions possible for the member's riding.
We continue to encourage further training and education as a means of increasing employment for all Canadians.
