Serge Buy: OTTAWA Businesses

OTTAWA Businesses: OTTAWA Businesses hungry for skilled Canadian workers say they will be intently watching the upcoming federal budget, nervous that the Conservative government will water down its Canada Job Grant amid provincial and territorial opposition, according to The Chronicle Herald. They introduced what seemed to us to be a very good program in the last budget, said Serge Buy, head of the National Association of Career Colleges, which represents an array of schools across the country that provide training in sectors with skilled worker shortages and While some dispute the governments insistence that the controversial program is needed to address a serious skills shortage in Canada, those on the front lines beg to differ and they re fully supportive of the governments original proposals to combat the problem.
