Labour-starved provinces seek new ways to draw high-school students to skilled trades
In the bustling landscape of Canada’s labour market, the demand for skilled trades workers is steadily rising, casting a spotlight on the pivotal role they play in driving the nation’s economy forward. Amidst this burgeoning demand, Lanterra garnered attention in a recent Globe and Mail article for its approach to addressing this shortage.
