Renovations expert, Mike Holmes, laments the extreme shortage of skilled trades-people in Canada. He established the "Holmes Foundation", dedicated to promoting the trades, working with colleges and donating bursaries and scholarships. A photo calendar which features members of his construction crew will help raise funds for the foundation (available from holmesonhomes.com). Kids should be encouraged to enter the trades if they are interested and have appropriate talents. It's a great job, if you do a great job!
