Lyons, John E.; And Others

Canadian Journal of Education, v16 n2 p137-50 Spr 1991

The history of vocational education in Canada is traced, examining prejudices against it and constitutional issues that have inhibited its development. To solve its labor problems, Canada requires a national system of vocational education that ensures that young people see it as challenging and worthwhile. (SLD)
