Prime Minister Mark Carney unveiled the 'Team Canada Strong' initiative aimed at training 100,000 new trades workers over the next five years. The announcement includes significant policy implications and financial commitments to support recruitment, training, hiring, and apprenticeship completion in the construction industry.
The 'Team Canada Strong' initiative announced by Prime Minister Carney is highly relevant to the construction industry, particularly in the sector of skilled trades.
