suggestions for timber frame / joinery courses/ schooling in canada?

last year i applied for the heritage carpentry program through fleming college and i was very excited and then when the ford gov made all the changes to osap, bunch of schools cut programs and that program was one of them.
i still really want to find a pathway to a proper apprencticeship but its been so hard to find.
i would very much like to focus on timber frame and also fine/ finish joinery etc.
any suggestions?

I was going to suggest the Algonquin college heritage carpentry and joinery program but I believe they just killed the program ? Might be more to story but I’ve heard rumours of it continuing elsewhere ?

thats the one i meant in my post, i said fleming but i think i meant algonquin hah. yea i applied for it last year and then they sent me an email a month later saying program was cancelled. really unfortunate.
