Should Hamilton be trying to attract more young people to live, work and start businesses here, including the 60,000 students studying at Mohawk College, McMaster University and Redeemer University? If so, what should we be doing? If not, why not?

Beattie, Jeff Yes Attracting youth is one thing - retaining them is another. We need a better city-wide focus on youth issues and engagement. We need to understand what the obstacles are to keeping young people in Hamilton. I believe that a lack of jobs, affordable housing, transit, and barriers to small business creation, are among them. We need a better plan to address these issues and keep young people here.
