Madam Speaker, as we all know, our tourism sector was hit hard these past two years by the pandemic because of health measures and border closures. Can the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Tourism and Associate Minister of Finance tell us how the government is supporting this sector, which is a key economic driver and job creator, especially for young Canadians and rural communities?
