1 year, 9 months ago @rr3775 I understand the sentiment people seem to share that international students and other temp workers are taking jobs away from citizens and permanent residents. However, teenagers here are so self entitled now and are unwilling to do the jobs at McDonalds and Tim's. The laziness and lack of competitiveness is killing this economy. 2 j-Q8y3dv9Og
1 year, 9 months ago @calvinchan3028 He’s not against it, he said that the government set up the healthcare industry to only take foreign workers and did not invest in domestic programs or training - he’s frustrated with the government 1 j-Q8y3dv9Og
1 year, 9 months ago @lastChang Besides higher English requirements, Canada ?? also needs to check for the national security risks of temporary workers.\n- Many Chinese ?? don't come to Canada to put the hard work to earn a living,\nbut to act as a Chinese agent and \nto *launder corrupt money by buying up big houses.* 24 j-Q8y3dv9Og

1 year, 9 months ago @sonjapesko I am reading the comments and it seems like most people commenting didn’t actually take the time to listen to the interview. He is calling out the government out for political and reactionary changes based on sliding poll numbers as opposed to a coherent immigration policy. He specifically says that this government allowed certain sectors to get addicted to temporary foreign workers. These changes are political as this government is more concerned with political survival than the needs of Canada and Canadians. 7 j-Q8y3dv9Og
1 year, 9 months ago @MeMe-DLoner justice has been served for the pioneer employees who have suffered from toxic employers who were switching pioner employees to students or temp status. there is non shortage in people, employers are just getting rid pioneer employees to corrupt because in student or temp worker, they can save more pennies 4 j-Q8y3dv9Og

1 year, 9 months ago @GraceDollesin Then pay rent ! No landlord doesn’t have to go through this stress either. We have a rental house in St. Catharine’s and our tenants was destroying our property because of their big dogs. We gave them three months in advance because they didn’t pay for two months. We end up paying paralegal just to send them an eviction notice. It was the best 2,400$ we spent. Losers did so much damage in our house including water pipes. They dumped dried cement in the water drainage and we end up spending 5,000$ for repair. \nBe careful who you rent you property. A lot of them are scum bags. 0 N0xk0Bn6FqI
1 year, 9 months ago @codykingston4608 Oh for God's sake it's not political, it's because they screwed up, AND TO WAIT TILL SEPTEMBER 26TH??? You might as well extend that to Christmas to give the temp workers something to look forward to, leaving us hardworking Canadians without a joyful Christmas ourselves 2 j-Q8y3dv9Og

1 year, 9 months ago @falcoperegrinus8094 TFW here, east Asian, a couple of things:\nI am paid the provincial minimum wage, and work in the dairy industry, medium sized farm.\nI started working straight out of high school\n\nFrom what I can see and hear from across the province and largely in the western Canadian provinces, older generation farmers are at the retirement age, but the younger generation is generally very reluctant to take over. \nNot all industries, but definitely in livestock, people sometimes don't realize that, there is literally no breaks, ever! You work every day, holidays, Christmas, and if you do chose to take a few days off, your co-workers, i.e. other family members or workers, have to take up the extra workload. You barely have time for your family, you are often tired around your kids. Farmers have some of the highest suicide rates among all occupations, as well as a difficulty to find partners due to the nature of their jobs.\nThe work is hard, days long, especially during harvests, and if the ever more expensive tractors, equipment fail...\nThere used to be a lot of family owned farms, over the last few decades most have sold their generational farm and left the industry, most because of the cost to operate and because the next generation's unwillingness to take over.\nYong people my age have not been seen applying for my position in a few years now, despite ongoing hiring effort at significantly higher than minimum wage, and I have repeatedly stated that I, although love my job, am ready to step aside at any point so a Canadian PR or citizen can take my position, as required by worker rules. There were a few inquiries from neighboring areas, mostly made by parents, but their children in the end all refused to work, even part time, or seasonal.\n\nOn the other hand, there is the issue of prices: equipment costs have largely more than doubled since the pandemic, grain prices rose... and all that on top of the constant uncertainty of the weather every planting and harvesting season. Most farms don't ever make a profit after the yearly operating cost is deducted from earnings, and the little profit that on occasion appear, goes right back into paying debt or reinvesting in renewing long overdue old equipment.\n\nMy position, and all those similar to mine in agriculture, are in all fairness, very low skilled, with minimum training, and therefore is only worth minimum wage, in my opinion. I was actually offered a higher amount but in the end turned it down because on the job, I discovered the only thing I bring to the table is manual labor (I know that's not really the right way to go about wages, but I do believe that wages should be based on the irreplaceableness of one's skills, and as it stands, although no replacements were ever found, I am very much easily replaceable, skill wise). That, compared to a slightly better paid Starbucks position, with benefits (most farm workers and owners don't have benefits or pension, yes owners too), air conditioning, regular work hours. I mean, if it wasn't for my particular interest for agriculture I'd pick Starbucks any day too!\n\nI think a couple issues are at hand, \n1. Most of agriculture's profit ends up in the corporate processing and supermarkets, that needs to change, workers could benefit, as well as consumers, from distributing that profit between farmers and shoppers.\n2. Agriculture in today's context no longer fit the modern life, although I strongly think that A LOT of people can benefit from getting their hands dirty once in a while and sweating a bit, improve physical and mental health, have better discipline all that jazz. So foreign workers are the temporary solution, if well regulated so that Canadian PR and citizens are ALWAYS prioritized for hire and at a fair wage. This cannot happen unless farmers can turn a profit, stated in point 1.\n3. A new generation of farmers are needed to take over, and they need to be somehow convinced that it is worth the toil, because as it stands, it is not, financially, life style wise. Automation is one solution, although therein lies the huge, foreseeable risk of corporate takeover.\n4. On a specific note, TFW does mandate that workers are provided up to standard housing (not always followed), which puts local workers at a huge disadvantage if they are commuting to work and paying rent, although that rarely happens, and the majority of farms do offer housing to all.\n\n\nI am aware that me being treated up to regulation is not the norm among my TFW peers, which is quite sad and unacceptable. But in my opinion, even if given a leveled playing field, wages , conditions, housing, etc. Canadian citizens and PRs largely will be unable to meet the demand for these jobs, from unwillingness to work really hard physically, unwillingness to live the lifestyle, wanting a career with better prospects... these are harsh words, but I believe to be true, and they also come from a lot of older generation farmers talking about their children and grandchildren. \n\nThis is just in the agri industry, and from what I hear from farmers from all over western Canada : ) 8 j-Q8y3dv9Og

1 year, 9 months ago @scottschulmeister8350 worker shortages are a lie. actual workers born here just refuse to work for slave wages, and working under na.zi like conditions. oligarchys are the real issue they cry capitalism when they have to pay and cry socialism when they blow all there money on monopolization. 0 j-Q8y3dv9Og
1 year, 9 months ago @Jcallahan-p2p says a guy who makes a lot of money off of it, while never having to worry about his job's wages becoming stagnant because of them, his kids won't be going to the same schools, and they won't be living in his neighborhood. 3 j-Q8y3dv9Og

1 year, 9 months ago @marshferguson4737 I saw a CBC article about an international student and how shes going to struggle financially with less hours to work. First of all theyre supposed to have the money to support themselves. Secondly working a full time job while studying full time is weaking educational outcomes. No wonder IS are failing! If you cant afford too be here then you need to move back home. 27 j-Q8y3dv9Og

1 year, 9 months ago @marshferguson4737 The unemployment rate is to high! Fast food and retail have raised their prices while paying less wages. Kids cant get jobs. Im a psw in home care and i lost hours to TFW because of the wage differences. Now I cant pay my bills because of TFW. The companies are pushing Canadians out and keeping wages low. Its not just agricultural and food production. Its being used in all sectors. The government has already identified tons of fraud. 1 j-Q8y3dv9Og
1 year, 9 months ago @MollyMarine You are asking an immigration lawyer his opinion on limiting his clientele. OBVIOUSLY this person will be against it. NO, this is not political. Mass immigration/allowing international students to work has destroyed wages, opportunities for Canadians/young people and caused mass division and depression across our nation 212 j-Q8y3dv9Og

1 year, 9 months ago @Ed-xv4sy So, instead of paying Canadians better wages, or training the unemployed Canadians, the business lobby went to the gov't and cried for slave labour and the gov't heavily obliged. 45 j-Q8y3dv9Og
1 year, 9 months ago @blondelynne9717 It is political! The Liberals are losing voters! They don't care about Canadians! These jobs should have always gone to Canadians!! They broke the immigration system! 0 j-Q8y3dv9Og
1 year, 9 months ago @angelicaesparza2577 International students should come just to study not to work, if they can pay the universities fees, they should be able to pay for their bills. Foreign workers are need in some jobs, for example: agriculture, housekeeping, or skilled workers are ok too but we can see every store, fast food shops full of Filipinos and Indians, and they’re like mafias, once a Filipino is a manager, they mostly hire Filipinos and same with Indians. My daughter and her friends have been applying for a part time job in Tim’s, McDonalds, a&w, Walmart and other grocery stores and barely get a interview and never hired?, ahh but my daughter’s Filipino friends are all working ?, some of them where their parents work? 14 j-Q8y3dv9Og

1 year, 9 months ago @W1thcdoctor1987 This tactic won't work in the long term. Most immigration applicants would simply select a municipality with low levels of unemployment. Then move to other locations after their work permits are approved. 2 j-Q8y3dv9Og
