"A Mark Carney led government will provide a new upskilling and training benefit for workers in the middle of their careers who need to access new skills training for their career stability and success. This new benefit will :

1. provide up to $15,000 for workers in priority sectors, including manufacturing, health care, construction, A.I. and technology. In the face of the economic uncertainty and volatility many Canadian businesses are facing, we will collaborate with employers to support retention and upskilling within their companies; and,
2. ensure that Canadian workers impacted by tariffs have the necessary tools to pursue good paying jobs and advance their careers in priority sectors. We will design these supports in partnership with labour, employers, and industry."
