(Redirected from The Trades (TV series)) Canadian television series

The Trades is a Canadian comedy television series created by Ryan J. Lindsay that premiered on March 22, 2024, on Crave.

Series creator Lindsay has called the series his "love letter" to the blue collar industrial culture of his hometown of Sarnia, Ontario.

The series stars Robb Wells as Todd, a red seal welder working for the construction company Conch Industries who aspires to be promoted to site manager after current manager Bennett's (Tom Green) chaotic lifestyle causes disruption, but is passed over in favour of Chelsea (Jennifer Spence), an ambitious executive from head office. Meanwhile, Todd's sister Audrey (Anastasia Phillips) is facing hurdles in her goal of working for the company as a carpenter. The series also stars Patrick McKenna as Rod, Todd and Audrey's father, with the supporting cast including Enrico Colantoni, Jason Daley, Jesse Camacho, Dan Petronijevic, Brandon Oakes, Raoul Bhaneja and Susan Kent.

A production of Trailer Park Boys Inc. and Kontent House, the series entered production in Nova Scotia in 2023. All eight episodes were directed by Warren P. Sonoda.
