The job title is not identical everywhere. Many provinces use Truck and Transport Mechanic; Ontario uses Truck and Coach Technician; Alberta and Nunavut use Heavy Equipment Technician – Truck and Transport Mechanic. On a résumé, use the title that employers in that province expect and note that you hold the Red Seal. See the Red Seal trade page.
