    temporary foreign workers

    What is your feelings on TFWs over 1,000,000 new ei claims and farmers still whining they need tfw,and nannys . I think its about time we looked after all Canadians instead of those few with the money ,if your operation wont fly without cheap foreign labor mabey it should fail.
    The gov is exempting those coming into the country mostly on the premise of producing food ,very little is skilled labour I think we can supply enough help without the TFW program.

    Why have "ag more than ever" if no one wants to reconnect with agriculture

            Dont see where anyone is bragging only stating that there has been that many application for EI if we can train foreign workers we could probably train locals,and more of the wages would stay at home,and if you cant survive without screwing some mexican or philipino mabey you should quit what ever you are doing.

              Philipinos are good workers, just saying. Think EI recipients would take a page out of that book?

                How long until the Mennonite community in southern Alberta has the whole area in a shutdown quarantine? Already a case there.

                  How many people do you employ,Horse. You seem to have a problem with anyone making less than $20 or more than $25. You should go to Cuba, you would probably love it there. Do take your own food tho, their system is starving their people.

                    Many I couldn’t hire due to :
                    - must be personable
                    - ability to drive, class 1A
                    - lack of respect
                    - willingness to work extended hours
                    - ability to operate technologies in modern equipment

                    Etc., 😊
