Contractor, TV Host and DIY Enthusiast<\/h2>\n

Sherry Holmes, is a contractor, TV host, keynote speaker, brand ambassador, social media influencer, and ambassador for women in the skilled trades. Her dad is celebrity contractor, Mike Holmes, so construction is in her blood.

 <\/p>\n

Sherry\u2019s style, personality and talent continue to shine as co-host on, Holmes Family Effect on CTV and Fox and Holmes Family Rescue on HGTV US and CTV Life Channel and available for streaming on CRAVE. Season 2 of Holmes Family Rescue is airing now on HGTV US with more episodes in 2024.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Production has started on a brand new series for the free streaming channel HomefulTV<\/a>, in collaboration with Blue Ant Media, Holmes <\/strong>on Homes: Building A Legacy, <\/strong>and will air on Cottage Life later in 2024. Plus, watch all the classic Holmes fan favourites on HomefulTV<\/a> too!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sherry is also thrilled to be an official Meagan Bebenek Foundation<\/a> ambassador and spokesperson.

\u201cIf you\u2019re thinking about getting into the trades, go for it! If it\u2019s your passion learn as much as you can. It might be harder than you think to make your mark, but I promise you it will be worth it. It just might change your life\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now a working mom with two little girls, Sherry continues to lend her support and social media presence to youth and young women wanting to get into the trades with Skills Canada, SkillsUSA<\/strong> and World Skills<\/strong> and mentorship programs like Conestoga College’s Jill of All Trades<\/strong> and WIST (<\/strong>Women in Skilled Trades). Sherry advocates for change, equality and diversity in the face of Canada\u2019s skilled trades workforce, demonstrating that women can bring an entirely new dimension to the construction industry that makes it fundamentally stronger from the ground up.<\/p>\n

\n\t\n\t\tI love working in the trades and I love when organizations like Skills Jam<\/a> and SkillsUSA<\/a> promote and share passion for the skilled trades.

I came across this awesome YouTube Channel The Skills Jam. It will definitely get you pumped about the skilled trades sharing experiences and real-life stories! Every young person considering a career in skilled trades needs to check this out. Parents too!

The skilled trades industry offers many fulfilling and exciting career opportunities with competitive wages and job security. The more we champion the skilled trades, the more students and young people will take notice.

Check it out - you won't regret it \t\t\t<\/span>\n\t...
