I suspect you'll hear a lot of our apprenticeship program has been cancelled since the gov't doesn't offer near the incentives(read money) that they used to for apprenticeships.............

a lot of apprenticeship programs have been cancelled, Bob Rae cancelled al the incentives for companies to train apprentices.

works out good for me, that means that once I've got my sparky's license, I'll be paid more, because I'll be in more demand.

I'm a member of the Kitchener local.. I've been laid off since january, there's no freakin work.

I'm a 3rd year apprentice, and a member in good standing with local 804, and honestly, if I thought that the union was a good place to start at this time, I'd tell him so.
