All policies are political. I can’t stand how stupid this sort of thinking that there are some magical category of nonpolitical politics.
I had this exact take yesterday and got downvoted here but it’s true. Poilievre loves oversimplifying everything into populist soundbytes but it’s not fair to say it should be scrapped in favour of some sort of permanent residency or bust system.
An academic at the top of their field doing a stint as a visiting professor and collaborating on research projects, a world class engineer consulting on infrastructure projects, someone from a foreign firm coming to do warranty approved maintenance on a highly advanced and specialized piece of machinery. These are all TFWs as the system exists now, I don’t think anyone who thinks the program should be scrapped outright appreciates that.
> Karen Cocq, a spokesperson for Migrant Workers Alliance for Change, said Poilievre’s pitch is “absolutely a political move, and a desperate attempt to distinguish himself and his party from [Prime Minister Mark] Carney’s already very right-wing policies.”
> Cocq told The Hill Times that her advocacy group believes the TFWP “should be scrapped” as it creates systemic exploitation of migrants by denying them permanent resident status, but the way this should be done is not through Poilievre’s plan, she argued.
> “Only permanent-resident status would give migrant workers the ability to stand up for their rights, leave bad jobs, and build lives in Canada together with their families,” she said.
100% agree with this lady. You have to be naive to believe you can magically guarantee worker rights to people while their stay in Canada is dependent on their employer’s whims. The system is built for worker exploitation.
The videos we see of young people lining up by the hundreds for hours at a job fair are at urban centers and it’s mostly PGWP/IMP taking up the jobs there. Why don’t we limit where international students can work? Instead of the PGWP being an open work permit why isn’t it dependent on the course they took here.
With the new PGWP rules, we currently already choose whether to give a WP to an international student or not depending on if their course is in demand so why not go further and make sure they are actually benefiting from the education they received here by limiting the work to only course related work.
I’m sick of seeing International students come here to study business management then go and work low level retail or service at Tims. Then a TFW gets all the blame for it. When in reality it’s the PGWP/IMP program that is to blame.
Notice how many articles there are, circling the wagon.
Protect the TFW program corporate canada and corporate media bellow in lockstep.
Not a peep about young Canadians unable to find jobs, or Canadians facing the highest levels of unemployment, baring the pandemic, since 2016.
It’s shameless and transparent. We heard the same things when Trudeau reduced immigration last year, even when, surprise surprise, rental prices started to drop.
Shameless.
What does Jenny (my MP) mean when she says “full reform”? What is “full reform” if not something akin to what Pierre is suggesting? I am an NDP voter but the federal party really needs to do what Eby did and be honest about the program!
It may be political but isn’t everything?
Calling it ridiculous is ridiculous.
The majority of Canadians see the TFWP for what it is: Modern neoliberal slavery. Depressing Canadian wages and increasing the unemployment rate.
