Mr. Speaker, the member for Oshawa serves her constituency incredibly well. We have a very serious unemployment problem in our part of the country, and this is also affecting all parts of the country. We also have a very serious youth unemployment problem.
I want to stress to everyone listening in the House that I speak to young people all the time. They see what is happening. They work hard. They go to school. They hope to have a career and a future, to own a home, start a family, start a business or do whatever they want to do for whatever their dreams are, yet they are constantly seeing evidence that it is only going to get harder.
In the 2025 federal budget, we see an out-of-touch government thinking that young people want to see more state dependency as a solution to their problems. However, they want to thrive as independent people.
