NATIONAL PRESS THEATREAccession:1986-0283Media:SoundProduction date:1986-02-19Production company:National Press TheatreDescription:Press conference held by Senator Jacques Hébert to announce the completion of a report on youth unemployment by a Special Senate Committee on Youth. After introducing colleagues Len Marchand and Paul Yousek, Hébert makes a brief opening statement about the committee's belief that their report will demonstrate the urgency of the current situation and induce the public to demand political changes. In response to questions from the press, the senators cite statistics; describe the process of interviewing witnesses, reviewing letters and briefs from people between the ages of 15 and 24; and point out the high social costs of keeping young people on welfare and without hope for the future. Marchand emphasizes the need for a special senate committee to deal with the problems of native youth. <40mn>Subjects:FEDERAL AID TO YOUTH SERVICES~PRESS CONFERENCES~YOUTH EMPLOYMENT~CANADA.
