Human Resources committee It's thousands, to be honest with you. It's not just what we need today. It's the ability of our member companies to grow. It's those lost opportunities. For example, we have our immediate past chair out of Saskatoon. He owns a company, and he has about 100 or so people. What's stopping him from growing is not being able to find people.

Human Resources committee Yes, costs have gone through the roof, including those for insurance and for every material they buy. It's gotten much more expensive now than it was, say, even four years ago.

Human Resources committee Yes. It's not just on housing. There are also the interest rates on commercial development. The money's just not what it was four years ago.

Human Resources committee Good morning, Mr. Chair. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you for giving me the opportunity today to discuss a key issue for our country, especially this week. I emphasize this week because, for the Canadian Roofing Contractors Association and our 400 member companies across Canada, we are celebrating roofing in Canada.
