They are both pieces of legislation that govern apprenticeship in the province of Ontario. The TQAA applied to every trade until the year 2000, but now continues to apply only to all construction trades (about 30 trades in total). The new Act (ACA) applies only to service, automotive, manufacturing/industrial sector apprenticeships – about 100 trades in total.
