Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The government is going to invest money into training through a certification program. These guys get paid $10 per hour. BHP is willing to pay $30 per hour. The money is being spent by the department to train people for BHP. Again I ask, would Municipal and Community Affairs look at increasing funding to municipalities so they can pay people at a competitive wage? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
