It's not the "bring us your hungry, you're poor and we will help them" sort of situation. It's big, shitty corporations lobbying to get people to work for way too little on one end, then the government getting interest free loans from the rich on the other end. Neither is motivated by making a better life for new or current citizens.

Well I feel like I can say this now that time gone but Telus was a terribleeee offender for this type of shit.
Search Craigslist for technician jobs, their “contractor” companies are Indian guys who have an in with someone, they hire TFW pay them less than minimum wage based on a contract you’re stuck to, and have 3 guys following one guy around figuring out the jobs as they go.
Telus knows this and there were even people who were trying to escalate this to larger bodies but of course that all gets stifled.
These are the same guys. It’s one thing as you said to bring in skilled, smart, people but to use TFW to undercut your regular worker and then increase your bills after strong arming the people they pay “more” to lol it’s so gross
