Canada is experiencing a growing unemployment crisis. Youth unemployment is over 14%, and growing! I’ve been speaking out about this issue in the House of Commons, and getting very weak responses from the government.  (Click here and here to watch)

In order to continue to raise this issue, I want to share your stories. Are you unemployed? Perhaps you’re a student who has not been able to find a summer job, living in a very high unemployment region, or just haven’t been able to catch a break in a long time? I’d like to be able to share your story.

Please provide as much or as little detail as you like. If you are open to being contacted by my office for additional context or information about your particular situation, feel free to share your contact information in the space provided. Otherwise, you are welcome to leave your submission anonymous.

All responses, including personal details, will remain strictly confidential.

Thank you for taking the time to share your story. Your voice and your experience matters. I want to be able to use your story to inform the broader public and to shape and direct conversations here in Ottawa about employment challenges across the country.
