Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, as I stated in my Member's statement, skilled labour shortages continue to plague business owners throughout the North and Canada. I hear so much about this government's investment in our youth. I was appalled to learn that the shop teachers' yearly budget was approximately $4,000.
Would the Minister please advise the House if he is aware that shop teachers in the South Slave are having to promote our students in trade areas on such a limited budget? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
