Thank you, Madam Chair. I am not one to run around the country and tell people that the ship is sinking, I am the only one that can save them. That is how I look at the statement the member made. Because you have to be realistic in this world, Mr. O'Brien. Our communities have a high level of unemployment, not only your community, mine do too. It is up to the people in those communities to come up with some ideas on job creation, on how they can move ahead, and how they can get trained, and how they also can become mobile. It is up to us as a government to create the atmosphere for economic enhancement in our regions, and we are doing that. The doors are opened. But, I am not God, and neither is Cabinet the apostles. But let me assure you, that you, yourself have to take some ownership of this issue. If you are an elected official from your region, go in there and work with your people to create some work, give them some ideas possibly, if they do not have the ideas. But I will not be doing that. If they come up with the ideas, we will help them to develop them. We will help them to create that work. Thank you.
