Mr. Speaker, we are seeing double digits in unemployment for youth, yet in the throne speech, there is no mention of programs such as the youth climate corps, which would ensure that a new generation of young people would get employment opportunities building Canada's infrastructure.

Will the member support a youth climate corps for Canada?

 

Éric Lefebvre Richmond—Arthabaska, QC
Conservative

Mr. Speaker, we said that on this side of the House. The important thing is to plan ahead for future generations, so that we can have a prosperous country that our young people will be proud of.
