Human Resources committee  Thank you.

Human Resources committee  Thank you. I will be sharing my time with the ever brilliant and prescient parliamentary secretary Cuzner.

Human Resources committee  A number of the issues that have been talked about here are certainly present in metro Vancouver as well, and we've seen a number of examples of people trying to respond to those things. Affordability seems to be the pre-eminent issue we're hearing about or getting feedback on, t

Human Resources committee  I have 20 seconds. I would like to know whether there are other jurisdictions in the world where this has been looked at, whether it's the European model or others. Also, you talked about the collaborative approach in doing analysis and metrics. Could you describe what that colla

Human Resources committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you, Mr. Fonseca, for talking about skilled labour. As a former bricklayer's helper for a year, I'm feeling kind of skilled and buoyed by the wonderful attributes I had, which have now deserted me. Anecdotally, looking at the Atlantic immigration pil

I know that Mr. Prince and Mr. Stapleton both talked about looking at more a broad-based, client-centred focus of serv

Human Resources committee  Thank you, and I want to thank Mr. Richards for bringing this issue before us. It's certainly been both an emotional experience and an intellectual experience going through this and all the testimony that we've received over a period of time. I've been closely connected with a nu

Human Resources committee  The timelines and extensions have been referenced a number of times, and I think there's a lot more commonality than is being portrayed. There are a number of principles that we talked about, and the principles can be implemented in a number of different fashions. Not everything

Human Resources committee  I'd like to add that you did a marvellous job as the chairperson. You handled that extremely well.

Human Resources committee  Can we ask Mr. Van Raalte what the practices normally are in these instances in terms of the dates coming into effect and whether there's a rationale for this?

Human Resources committee  That will remain silent on it now?

Human Resources committee  Make a determination, thank you.
