Speech: Youth deserve opportunity, not unemployment.

June 4, 2026

Canada’s youth are entering the working world with a federal debt burden none of them anticipated and none of them deserve. Added to that, youth employment is at one of the lowest points in decades.

Youth deserve opportunity, not unemployment. Through the Conservative Youth Jobs Plan, Conservatives have done the work and are determined to deliver results and real hope for their future.

We will unleash the economy and restore the take home pay Canadians need to break out of this Liberal debt cycle.
