Thank you, Madam Chair. And, yes, one of the challenges with journeymen, as the MLA is alluding to, is that as they do their training they require certain numbers of hours of work on the specific trade to become certified and often at the small community level, that can be really challenging to obtain the numbers of hours they require.
One of the things that we've noticed with the approach we've taken with our contractors this year is because they're doing them as work assignments, then it does allow the trainee to work among different employers to get their hours to be able to work towards their trade. So there are some different ways we can approach this. And I think as part of the renewal, one of the things we've done is we've reached out to our LHOs to have a conversation about training needs. And already in some of my early conversations with the LHOs, they've spoke to the fact that as newer technology has come in with houses and that, that their training is not meeting the needs of what they have to service at the community level. So I fully expect as part of our conversation with the LHOs that we'll get some recommendations about changing the way we look at our staffing complement for our maintenance in our communities and how to address that through training and apprenticeship. So I would look to this conversation we're having with LHOs about how to do a better job on that. Thank you, Madam Chair.
