OSPE’s COVID-19 Recommendations
During the COVID-19 pandemic many of Ontario and Canada’s engineers were affected, as thousands of engineering jobs are directly linked to the infrastructure, manufacturing, technology and research and innovation sectors. At OSPE we knew that engineering knowledge and talent was beyond capable of leading Ontario’s industries into the future and that engineers could play a key role in the economic recovery of the province. Below are OSPE’s economic recovery recommendations submitted to the provincial and federal governments.
