And that's all fine and dandy (for all intents and purposes) when the demand for work is high and supply of workers is low. But clearly, we aren't in Kansas anymore.
Importing cheaper labor while the supply here is already at record high, i just can't see that as much other than sidelining Canadians in dire need.
these decisions are exactly what determine an economic rebound.
Since cheap labour favours multi national corps, I don't think this trend will change under the Libs or Cons any time soon. Does the NDP have the rhetoric with regard to this scenario ?
