More than $60 million announced to boost skilled trades, says province
More than $60 million to boost skilled trades in Ontario.
The province announced Wednesday they would spend the money over the next three years.
The goal is to create up to 4000 more classroom seats for trades apprentices each year.
The government says it will help them get the training they need faster and cover their $10-per-day classroom fees.
Ontario is also looking at how they can hire more apprentices on publicly funded projects.
