But that's precisely the problem! Every aspect of the life is over regulated and smaller bushiness are kneecapped On other side big companies can get away with whatever. At some states florist is a regulated profession and requires more hours of training than for police.

> and requires more hours of training than for police.

Citation? Best I could find is that Louisiana regulates floristry but doesn't mandate education (you need to take an exam). As for taking more hours of training than police I think you are conflating that fact in your head with this: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/cosmetologists-police-trai...

Besides, I'm not sure how you got here in a thread about how Fedex, a "big compan[y] [which] can get away with whatever" getting caught scamming people.

Florist, regulated in QC, training is ~1K hours.

https://www.quebec.ca/en/government/quebec-at-a-glance/first...

training is also ~1K hours.

Car sales (any many other things) are heavily regulated where I live. Also it seems regulations are not enforced if one is 'too big to fall'.

Fines are just the cost of doing business and are priced in. Executive crime enforcement and resulting jail time is sorely needed. And not in luxury prisons, but in real prisons where the plebs go. Fines do nothing.

One can dream, the rich at the top write all the rules. It’s not like Joe Average is the one taking golf trips with Supreme Court justices and buying lobbyists to do their dirty work.

Stop ignoring the class war and start fighting it.

>>betaby+(OP)
That seems like an issue regulating the police and not an issue with opening up a florist business.

I just clicked through that link you provided (jobbank.gc.ca) and there's nothing that says florists need "1k hours" of training. It's unclear that they even need to be licensed at all. I also Googled for "license quebec florist" and didn't get any meaningful results.[1]

Can you provide better citation, or point explicitly to the licensing requirements?

Is it? That page is extremely vague and doesn't seem to be specific to study hours or even education requirements.

Floristry doesn't seem to be on the list of regulated professions in Quebec: https://www.quebec.ca/emploi3/metiers-professions/metiers-re..., but I may have missed it.

De-facto florists in QC need Certificat d'aptitude professionnelle

Link in french shows 1K hours https://ecole-metiers-horticulture.cssdm.gouv.qc.ca/programm... to obtain one.

>>bentle+Si
Well... I can understand why quite a bit of specialized knowledge would be needed. You have to know your flowers well, know how to operate the refrigeration machinery, what flower keeps at which temperature, what to do if your flowers seem sick etc etc...

Although a university degree "may be required by some employers ", I find this a bit much, however.

>>betaby+Pt
Your claim is untrue (that such a certificate is required for florists). The link you provided is to a vocational training program for people who want to specialize in floristry (because they want to open a business). I have a friend here in Ontario who recently went through a similar program for landscaping. It was not required, but it opened a number of job opportunities that would not have been available to them otherwise.

There are only a few jobs which have mandatory qualifications (left column in the link below) and a larger number of jobs which have voluntary qualification courses. There may be secondary requirements (e.g., to work as a butcher and get insurance, your employees must have the voluntary qualification certificate), but these are not regulated professions the way you have been incorrectly claiming on this thread.
