Absolutely, Mr. Speaker, and I'm proud of the work that this government has done in this area.

I think it was the foresight of past government to establish this, recognize that this was a trade that was worthwhile and worth pursuing. We spent a lot of effort, a lot of time, a lot of money to set the up the programs at Aurora College and if you look at the factories today, whether its Polar Bear or Arslanian, you see the recent press announcements and we have the benefit of seeing some of the financials and know that they're financially stronger than they have been in the past. The Tiffany factory is moving along, is moving quite well and doing quite well. We did have this issue with the Canada Dene factory that has really been struggling for quite some time. That's not been any secret, Mr. Speaker. There are business model issues. It was our smallest factory. It was up against a number of very challenging hurdles. That is not the death knell for this industry and I think that the kinds of things that we've done with cutting and polishing should be replicated elsewhere. If we are to look at this sector, do a bit of a gap analysis, I think you'd recognize and quickly find that there are probably other areas we can focus on as well, continue to support this. Potentially small engine or diesel engine mechanics, could we put together more programs and more effort in those areas, and there are many, many others. I think we need to sit down and talk about some of these opportunities, but I think we've done well here and continue to support it. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
