The videos in this unique career series represent an innovative production process in two important ways: First, to ensure that the VECTOR videos represented reasonable employment possibilities, CFEE worked with the Industry Sector Councils to identify the most appropriate careers and occupations to profile via the videos. Second, in an exciting new approach to production, Canadian youth from colleges and universities across Canada were engaged to produce the videos.

To learn more about occupations in Canada, visit Working in Canada (http://workingincanada.gc.ca), a source of free and useful information that can help you to decide where to live and work.

  • took this guy 9 years to become a fitter must have worked 5 hours a week lol...

  • @lordcodicus ya buddy thats why there is like over a thousand jobs in canada right now for fitters you must one dumb piece of shit ...

  • It's a bad idea to be a fitter, welders can fit their own joints or get a lower wage helper, and laborers can bolt flanges and shit together just as well. Dunno why anyone would choose this trade, it's basically just an additional requirement for other jobs.

  • ive forgot more than this cunt knows, what is he doing tacking that that way? whats he leveling? this bloke for real? with all his fancy kit, your shit , never been a fitter welder...that tapping machine is older than your country sort it out

  • @fitter221 im a fitter also. And if you look close enough, he is tacking the side not the top. So therefore, having the level that would get it done. Maybe he tacked the top and bottom first. Since that would be the third tack, he has to hold it square. Congrats, i hope i don't have to work in your local where you can't tell the difference.

  • bigger threat to pipe than rust !

  • the first weld they do he has the level the wrong way, he should be worried about the 90 degree fitting being up or down not left to right , you can rotate the pape to suit your left to right needs, as far as up to down he might want to use a vice clamp to level the but weld so that there is perfect gap throughout 360 degrees. My dad tought me that always take care of your welder and bartender and you will never have any problems on the road lol

  • Pipe fitters should use manual beveling using angle grinders not that GBC boiler pipe prepping machine. I don't allow my apprentices use prepping machines because it is not a good practice. I want to teach pipefitting there in Canada if some training providers will hire me.
