Carrier Fortin said Quebec is. a special labor market with problems different from those of the English - speaking proy- inces. 'They could best be solved under provincial policies. He said Quebec could not ac- cept a national labor mobility program, offering assistance to move workers to new jobs in other parts of the country, be- cause it would drain skilled workers from Quebec. "If a special manpower pol- icy for Quebec is not formu- lated, we incur the risk that technical training programs aunder federal-provincial agree- 'ments will tend to drain our province's stock of skilled work- ers, since most of our workers are bilingual. They can go to work in Eng-| lish speaking provinces while the reverse does not hold true. | As a matter of interest, facts| art from man- a Seales few skilled|S® overloaded with other prob- English - speaking workers|lems that they are giving low agree to come to work in Que-|Priority to vocational courses.
