I'm a Canadian....in the late 1960's,1970's everyone in my part of Canada ( 400 mile radius..North Western Alberta & North Eastern British Columbia ) were continuing on with POST SECONDARY EDUCATION. For the most part, most people were successful in a Career and good Citizens.(Universities, Collages ,Vocational Institutes were full of Canadians)
Today,lack of work ethics,lack of POST SECONDARY EDUCATION as well as ENTITELMENT has opened the Job market to emigrants. These emigrants,know why, they are showing up to the work site.
I retired at age 58 1/2. Six years into retirement my e-mails from May,1>October,30 have requests to assist and sign log books on Gas Turbine Inspections for young Technicians.....99.999% Women.. Very well paid Career once they have four years in, and are able to work unsupervised.
The Institutes of POST SECONDAY EDUCTIONAL learning are full of NON CANADIAN CITIZENS, who then go back to their countries,then turn around and flood the Canadian Market with goods that they acquired the skills to produce in Canada!!!!!!
I recently returned to Canada (from Europe) for a request to preform a Borescope and pertinent inspection (Inspect a G.E. LM1600 GAS TURBINE).
I did enquired if I was to meet anyone else whom would be involved with the hands on Inspection?
And the Individuals answer " you Sir are one from a generation that has the skills and License. Tell me where I can obtain young Turbine Technicians?"If you know of anyone with the SKILL SET, is HEALTHY, has NO Criminal Record and has good work ethics, we shall send them with you"

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
