Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have heard another Member talk about some of the large unemployment rates that we have in some of the communities. What is the department's strategy if we can achieve grade 12 in every community? What is the strategy for these people? What's

the future outlook for them in a community that has 60 per cent unemployment? Is there a strategy for providing some gainful employment if we have these people educated in the communities?

See context to find out what was said next.
