What kind of specialists does Canada lack?

By 2028, 700,000 professionals will retire.

Tradespeople in Canada often obtain qualification certificates through the apprenticeship system. They work as apprentices in manufacturing, then take the Red Seal, a 'red seal' exam recognized in many provinces.

Each year the federal government allocates $1 billion CAD to support and develop the apprenticeship system. In 2022, the government announced that amounts up to $4,000 CAD that skilled laborers and apprentices spend on travel can be deducted from taxable income.

The Canadian Apprenticeship Forum estimates that an average of 75,000 people a year will need to be apprenticed over the next five years. The highest demand is expected for the following professions:

  • welder;
  • industrial mechanic (locksmith);
  • automechanic;
  • bricklayer;
  • boiler operator;
  • carpenter;
  • povar;
  • hairdresser.

BuildForce Canada, a national organization dedicated to developing the construction industry and improving working conditions in it, says the country will need 309,000 new workers by 2030, as 259,100 people, 22% of those employed in construction, will retire.

The federal government launched a advertising campaign in early 2022 to persuade Canadian youth to train for skilled trades. Yet most teenagers surveyed see their successful career futures in other fields. Only 2 per cent of 15-year-old girls said with confidence that they would pursue a career in the workforce.
