Stay tuned for less Corporate funding and more being paid to private training operations by individuals. <br />As short as we are of trades people, corporations still think it is up to taxpayers or individuals to pay. And those crazy apprentices might join trade unions which are kryptonite to the liberals. Not hard to see where this "review" will go. Especially with such a " qualified" reviewer. cfvuanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-82352094349490244252013-09-09T14:49:49.611-07:002013-09-09T14:49:49.611-07:00Maybe we'll see Rick Thorpe hired on to assist...Maybe we'll see Rick Thorpe hired on to assist her :PAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-45572192931352990422013-09-09T11:14:34.075-07:002013-09-09T11:14:34.075-07:00Well, they screwed the system to hell 12 years ago...Well, they screwed the system to hell 12 years ago, must be time to mess with it again.

And surprisingly when she left.....she got a job with a Liberal friendly company.<br />And now she will once again be rewarded with taxpayer dollars. It appears our investment in training for Jessica has paid off enough that she can review the Provinces industrial training...<br /><br />Guy in VictoriaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
