Mr. Speaker, if we were to look at youth unemployment and go back to 2009 when the current leader of the Conservative Party sat around in the Conservative caucus under Stephen Harper, we would see that the rate of youth unemployment was at 15.2%. Then, going back to 2013, it was 13.7%. Why is that important to recognize? It is important because Stephen Harper and the current leader announced a policy in January 2014 that said they wanted to increase the number of international students to 450,000-plus. I wonder if the member would say that Stephen was Harper wrong to do so.
