As construction projects continue to expand and diversify across the country, there is a growing urgency to find innovative solutions that ensure the availability of a skilled and sustainable workforce. By convening industry leaders, this think tank aims to identify and explore strategies to attract and retain talent, from practical training initiatives to policy reforms, that will not only address the current labour shortage, but also pave the way for a thriving, resilient, and sustainable construction sector in Canada.
