Mr. Speaker, the throne speech addresses the job crisis in Canada, as did our economic action plan that was put in place.
Members will note that Canada has emerged from the global economic recession better than any other industrialized nation. Unemployment levels are at the same place that they were at the beginning of the recession, with this government having created almost 500,000 new jobs, including 91,000 full time jobs in the month of March. This is a priority for our government and it was absolutely outlined in the throne speech today.
