Exactly. Mechanics make what? $50-75 CDN an hour in labor? Here in china the certified mechanic at the Mercedes dealership that works on my car makes $500 CDN a month, my plumber makes $250 CDN a month, and the guy that came to fix my aircon makes $200 CDN a month. People in trades are only well respected in north america because of the education and certifications needed to be in the trade. In 2nd/3rd world countries, they are considered to be low class jobs because they don't require education, so of course immigrants from these countries are going to think the same towards trades.
