Going to university used to be a passport to future success, but that's no longer the case. For some students,…
it's still a good choice that leads to a successful career, but for many their degrees are worthless pieces of paper. Choose the wrong program and graduation is more likely to lead to disillusionment and debt than a steady paycheque. Yet parents, guidance counsellors, and politicians still push higher education as if it's the only option for building a secure future. The authors set out to explore the many and varied educational opportunities and career paths open to Canadian high school students and those in their twenties. Young adults will gain much insight regarding the path that is best for them: whether to pursue a degree, enrol for skills training, or investigate one of the many other options that are available. For senior high and older readers. 2014.

celles qui veulent s'y tailler une place? Julie Francœur montre que les femmes, bien qu'omniprésentes dans le monde agricole, demeurent en butte à différents préjugés. Dans ce livre, elle nous invite à poser quelques questions dérangeantes à propos de la ferme familiale, modèle de référence dans la profession. Dans un monde où conduire un tracteur peut représenter pour elles une transgression, les femmes dérangent. Et montrent qu'il existe d'autres manières de cultiver, d'élever et de mettre en marché
