British Expats - CBC News - TFW / Temporary Foreign Workers Probs.'

Who wrecked the process....?

To begin with the Fast Food Franchise owners got too greedy in the end and you may ask how....well I will tell ya!

One would agree that if Canadians did not want the jobs then of course a TFW programme was the answer.

However where it goes wrong is the following.....

The franchise owners who started paying a higher rate and giving more hours to TFWs rather then local Canadians and in the end laying off Canadians and hiring even more TFWs, well these franchise owners have another business going on too!.....

They either own or are part of a residential property owning business and they (the Franchise owners) decided to guarantee themselves a continued flow of "locked in" tenants", by using the Immigration Services TFW programme as a "cash-cow!" and to make sure the TFWs could pay their rents, the Franchise Owners/Hirers paid as much as they could afford to TFW staff at the expense of lowering pay to/ or firing Canadians.

If anyone reading this is outside Canada right now....just google
