Mr. Speaker, everyone knows how valuable and important the Canada summer jobs program for students is in supporting our municipalities, community organizations, day camps, small businesses and farms. It is especially vital for our young people as it helps them prepare for the labour market by giving them opportunities in their field. That is particularly true given the current labour shortage and inflationary crisis. The Prime Minister and the Liberal government boast about wanting to support young people. I would ask them to explain why the budgets and subsidies for student jobs were cut by one-third this year.
