and tedious work. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Canada was built on hardworking and dedicated tradesmen,”
he said. Initiatives such as Matcom’s Lift & Move career fair
will go a long way to help change Canadian youth’s perception
of the trade industry.
“Lift & Move Canada will bring clarity to the next generation
about the trades industry and help to explain how these jobs
are not only fun and exciting, but can also help to provide a
career for many young individuals.”
Given the success of the 2019 Lift & Move career fair,
Matcom is already in the planning stages for next year.
“Feedback was incredibly positive with great reviews
pouring in to social media within 20 minutes of opening the
doors. The need for incoming trade professionals is very great
and this is just one option that needs to be explored,” said
McCleave. He invites members of the crane, rigging, heavy
transport and related industries to join the challenge by
coming forward with sponsorship and participation in next
year’s event.
