I was just watching a show the other day with my hubby that was talking about how 70% of teachers in Canada are not full time employed.. We are hoping to get both our son and daughter into a trade. Even with the demand in trades though, here in Canada, employers want you to have 5 years experience before they will sign you on, after apprenticeship. They are preferring to hire experienced trade from Europe then take on the apprentice here! Hard times.
