Empowering the youth will build a resilient Canada.
Our purpose
At Canadian Trades Network, our purpose is to empower the next generation of Canadian tradespeople by connecting passion with opportunity. We believe the future of this country is built by skilled hands — carpenters, roofers, electricians, plumbers, and all those who turn plans into progress. Too often, young Canadians want to enter the trades but don’t know where to begin or how to gain experience.
Our mission is to close that gap by offering real, hands-on placements with trusted companies, giving participants the chance to explore different trades, develop practical skills, and find their true path. We aim to inspire confidence, pride, and purpose in every individual who steps onto a job site, helping them realize that a career in the trades isn’t just work — it’s a foundation for life.
Through our network of mentors, workshops, and training opportunities, we’re not only preparing people for jobs, but also helping them build sustainable careers and strong communities. The Canadian Trades Network exists to create a future where every willing worker has the chance to learn, grow, and contribute to building Canada — one skill, one trade, and one success story at a time.
