ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What if everything you thought you knew about English-speaking Quebec was wrong? In this episode, LEARN sits down with Morgan Gagnon of the Provincial Employment Roundtable (PERT) to unpack a staggering $1.5 billion employment gap between Quebec's English and French speakers—and the myth-busting research behind it. They dig into why language is only part of the story, what the future of work holds amid AI and a shifting economy, and how PERT's mentorship program is closing the gap, one connection at a time. Numbers you'll remember, stories that stick. https://pertquebec.ca
