Jour de l'opposition

Stephanie Bowman moved,

Stephanie Bowman a proposé,

Whereas in September of 2025, youth unemployment was at 17.8%, the highest in Canada, and approached levels as high as during the COVID-19 pandemic, previously not seen for 33 years; and
Whereas the average wait for a young person to find a job has grown to three and a half months, the highest in 29 years; and
Whereas Ontario businesses, particularly small businesses, are struggling with the impact of U.S. tariffs, and need support to weather trade uncertainties; and
Whereas despite generationally low job opportunities, the Premier has recently made comments blaming over 220,000 young workers for not being able to find a job, telling them to look harder; and
Whereas wage subsidy programs like Canada Summer Jobs have resulted in hundreds of thousands of job opportunities, helping local businesses and opening careers to young Ontarians;
Therefore, in the opinion of the House, the Government of Ontario should establish a youth wage subsidy program to create jobs in Ontario, helping young Ontarians start their career, create networks, and develop lifelong skills while providing Ontario businesses with well-educated young workers.

Debate arose and after some time,

Il s’élève un débat et après quelque temps,

The question was then put.
