Award-winning Master Electrician calls for inclusion, lifelong learning, and sustainable practices in Canada's trades
Tania-Joy Bartlett, a Master Electrician, heavy equipment operator, and community leader, is using her recent interview feature to raise awareness about the urgent need for inclusion, education, and sustainability in Canada's skilled trades.
Bartlett, who has earned over 25 community awards and is a longtime volunteer speaker in schools, says the industry's challenges are about more than just filling jobs. They're about creating workplaces where everyone can thrive.
"I wanted a workplace where your skill set is more important than your gender or race," Bartlett explains. "When I wasn't accepted at my past employer, I created a workplace that focused on safety, quality, and equality. We need more spaces like that."
The Need for Change
Canada faces a looming shortage of over 256,000 skilled workers by 2028 (BuildForce Canada). Women currently make up only 4.7% of workers in construction trades, despite being nearly half of the workforce overall. Bartlett says the gap isn't just numbers - it's missed opportunities.
"We don't just need more workers, we need more different workers," she says. "That means welcoming women, newcomers, and anyone who's been told they don't belong."
Lessons in Leadership
In her interview, Bartlett shares her approach to overcoming setbacks, managing productivity, and continuing to grow. She stresses the importance of continuing education, both for professionals and students.
"Continue education and training on new skills and products," she advises. "It's how you stay ahead."
She also highlights the promise of green building technologies, calling them one of the most exciting trends in the industry. "Tradespeople are on the frontlines of climate action," she says.
Call to Action
Bartlett encourages Canadians to take their own steps toward stronger, more inclusive trades:
*
Challenge stereotypes - Speak up when you hear outdated ideas about who belongs in the trades.
*
Support youth programs - Volunteer time, share skills, or donate resources to organizations that connect young people with trade education.
*
Keep learning - Whether in construction, teaching, or everyday life, seek out new training, tools, and perspectives.
*
Find balance - Prioritize personal fulfillment alongside professional growth.
"You need both - personal fulfillment and professional skill - to be successful," Bartlett says. "The trades can give you both, but we have to make sure the door is open for everyone."
