“Our government is spending $6 billion to help apprentices get certified. Skilled trades offer good, well-paying jobs. I want to congratulate Ryan Beattie and the other apprentice welders from my riding who won skills competitions.”
“Mr. Speaker, when the Secretary of State for Labour came to my riding, he met apprentices who would benefit from our government’s $6-billion plan to incentivize 100,000 apprentices to get their Red Seal. Three of those whom we met were welders who had just won first, second and third prizes in the local welding competition and were on their way to compete for the Ontario championship. Ryan Beattie from my riding won the gold and is now on his way to compete at the national championship. I want to congratulate Ryan and all the other competitors. A career in the trades is a well-paying job with the satisfaction of helping to build Canada strong for all. Ryan’s future and that of his fellow apprentices is bright. I thank him for great representation, and I thank the organizers for supporting the trades.”
