An Alberta electrician is not made in a lecture hall. She is hired at eighteen, paid a fraction of a journeyman's wage that rises each year, and trained on real buildings by a master who signs off on her competence. After several years and a certifying exam, she is a journeyman herself. Plumbers, welders, mechanics, and carpenters are made the same way.
