The VFW Says: “This is a great opportunity for veterans, transitioning military, National Guard and reservists, and their family members,” said Ted Daywalt, founder and CEO of VetJobs (www.vetjobs.com), a recognized industry leader in helping veterans find work.
Sounds like All Vets and Families.
You are correct. The Canadians are critically short of skilled labor so they will take any and all applicants who are qualified for the jobs.
We had lined up a lot of jobs for veterans to work on the Kestone Pipeline (like over 8,000 jobs!). I chased down on the Canadian jobs after Obama killed the Keystone Pipeline. Since he does not want to develop US energy and let our veterans have good jobs, I went to where energy is being developed to find good jobs for our veterans.

The problem is many of these jobs have extensive prerequisites, it doesn’t seem like there’s many that would work for someone with a basic military background or limited construction experience.
