Default Canada labour shortage

I’ve read a survey that says Canada is one of the countries with very high rate of labour shortage. Canada is rated second after Mexico the survey says. According to the prime minister the new skilled immigration policy have to be a top priority for the government.
It turns out we need more Mechanics, Electricians, Nurses, Drivers, Engineers, Sales reps., Chefs, Labourers.
Sometimes I wonder, we have so many unemployed and at the same time we have labour shortage…

So perhaps that says that people are training in the wrong field.
Alot of people train themselves in IT etc, fields which really are over populated rather than choosing one of the below fields.

Thanks for this list, it's quite inspiring.

This is really interesting. I know that there are not enough nurses but I didn't know that we have labour shortage and in such a high rate.
maybe a lot of unemployed could start new careers.

this is when they start bringing migrants in and everyone complains they are taking our jobs.
These skills should be taught whilst still at school, in my opinion.
