Issues:
• It seems to me that provinces control post-secondary education and skills
training as such how are they adapting their policies to support areas that
have more upside when it comes to careers?

13. Job Quality
• Here are issues facing the labor market which drives job quality:
• Closing the private/public sector payroll gap - http://www.cfib-fcei.ca/english/article/7114-public-sector-
workers-earn-more-work-less.html
• Integrated economic strategy between provinces including trade barriers, maximizing or expanding existing
programs, capping hydro rates, reduction in red tape, moving projects quicker through environmental process.
Mulcair never talks about these areas, why? http://www.slideshare.net/paulyoungcga/internal-trade-canada
or http://www.cfib-fcei.ca/english/article/6893-red-tape-accountability-report-card-2015.html. How many
provinces in this list are NDP or Liberal-led (Manitoba and Ontario).
• Re-aligning skills trade with jobs opening and for the future
