“It’s always been a good time to enter the trades”-@BronkOCS

Great article in @cdnbiz featuring our CEO discussing the lack of awareness about careers in the trades and steps the industry is taking to promote them.

#BuildingTrades unions not only benefit their members, but they also strengthen local communities 💪

“Unions help fortify the social safety net and push workers’ families and communities toward long-term self-sufficiency.”

The federal government needs to develop a national maternity assistance program strategy to remove barriers for women in the trades, @CDNTrades operating officer Robert Blakely recently told a senate committee on social affairs, science and technology. https://t.co/H2rR5j5BJU

Great to hear @MYorke27 and @AndrewKrystal discuss the benefits of unionized construction. Unions are 23% safer and provide permanent well-paying jobs. They also give back to the community in amazing ways. Bill 66 could put these benefits at risk. https://t.co/ofgqQtJXGA

https://t.co/yrKbT6HzrN online piece in the Ontario Construction Report. With Bill 66 the provincial government is attacking rights of #Construction workers! Going after @CollegeofTrades hurts #Apprenticeship & #training #skilledtrades #canlab @Ontario1953

“Writing down goals and communicating them to others is like networking. But I suggest networking is broken and instead you should give value first. Try “net giving because it will be much more rewarding”. - #OCS25YearsAGM Chris Cummins
