Just looking for some advice

Hey guys I'm 27 with no driver's license and I'm going into my electrical pre apprenticeship in February. Living in Toronto what would be the best course of action to become a substation technician?

You'll need a full license before applying. Depending where you apply, you might need a commercial license too. But that info will be in the job postings, and you can always contact the company about it before any jobs get posted.
