    Not sure what part of Canada you're from but here in west the two accredited schools that will also do driver upgrading such as mountain driving are Thompson Rivers University (Columbia Transport) in Kamloops and Mountain Training Institute in Castlegar. Know there are a couple back east.
    I did a 76 hour upgrade at TRU. Itwas great.
    Good luck.
    There are lots of jobs out there its just finding companies that will hire new drivers with not much e/perience. Most companies want 2+ years.
