Hadju Hosts Skilled Trades Roundtable
Thunder Bay–Superior North MP Patty Hajdu met with unions, employers, educators and community groups at Confederation College to discuss the federal government’s $6-billion investment in skilled trades training. The roundtable focused on growing labour shortages, major projects ramping up across Northern Ontario, and the need to support apprentices through recruitment, training, mental health, and completion of their Red Seal journey.
Hajdu says the feedback gathered will help shape how the federal skilled-trades initiatives roll out across the country. Participants also highlighted challenges around exposure for young people, remote work, and the realities of life in the trades.
