    When we have articles about how highschool and university students can’t find jobs and construction companies are laying people off, I’d like to know what labour shortages we have outside of healthcare.

      It never goes into detail about the jobs they can’t find… what is the barrier they are dealing with? Experience? Expectations too high?

      Anecdotal i know but… my brother in law is on the job hunt and there’s loads of potential employers calling him back for construction work, entry level jobs in garages, hotels looking to staff up in the summer, etc. He’s working on getting his work permit sorted so he’s not able to take the job offers yet… certainly seeing a lot though.
