Mr. Speaker, our government has created 950,000 net new jobs since the downturn of the recession. That is why we are putting in place policies and initiatives, such as the youth employment strategy, and making sure that apprenticeships are provided support through grants such as the completion grant and the initiation grants.
I encourage the NDP opposite to support those job creation programs and the long-term prosperity of the country that will be put forward in the budget today. Employment insurance, as we have mentioned before, will continue to be there for those who need it.
