      The jist of it:

      >The 2024 bulletin said consultation would begin on a plan to admit a “new permanent economic class of workers in TEER 4 and TEER 5 jobs” that typically require no formal education or on-the-job training.

      >But those consultations haven’t happened, and the program was not included in Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada’s three-year regulatory plan released in July.

      >Critics pointed out that any PR permit that went to a low-skilled worker meant there was one less for the kind of high-skill worker who is the backbone of Canada’s immigration system.

      I see dropping this (if they do actually drop it) as quiet but appropriate course correction on this file.

      And, it is refreshing to see this take more and more:

      >Ottawa also relaxed rules around temporary foreign workers, making it easier for businesses to bring in people to work in restaurants, in delivery and in other non-seasonal businesses, on the grounds they couldn’t find Canadians or permanent residents to work for low wages.

      >But as we’ve said before, the fact a fast-food restaurant or factory doesn’t want to pay higher wages is emphatically not the same thing as a labour shortage. Businesses have no right to subsidies in the form of cheap foreign labour.
