Adam Pankratz: AfD’s rise in Germany offers stark lessons for Canada

Any sentence that ends with “for the first time since 1945” is likely to garner attention. When the first part of the sentence is “Germany votes for far-right government,” drinks are spat out and the volume on the telly is turned up.

And so it is. Over the weekend, German voters in Thuringia easily lifted the Alternative for Germany (AfD) to the top spot in regional elections. In Saxony, the party placed a close second, right behind the centre-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU), which, together with the centre-left Social Democratic party, has had a lock on power nearly everywhere in Germany since the modern Germany state was founded in 1949.

There is nothing “extremist” about defending your best interests from vile politicians and a rapacious corporate class as we are faced with in Canada.

Liberal immigration pivot forces Canada to reckon with approach to labour shortages

OTTAWA – The Liberal government’s decision to reel in the temporary foreign worker program after loosening the rules to help businesses find workers after the pandemic is sparking a contentious debate about whether governments should even try to address labour shortages.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on Monday that his government is bringing back stricter rules to stem the flow of low-wage temporary foreign workers, and he urged businesses to hire and train Canadian workers.

There was never a “labour shortage” there was a slave shortage and our Captain’s of Industry had Trudeau fix that for them.

Business groups worry about their access to cheap foreign labour as a desperate Trudeau slows migrant intake in effort to reverse “Dead Man Walking” poll stats

Justin Trudeau retreats from Canada’s liberal immigration regime

Business groups raise concerns over measures to reduce the number of foreign workers entering the country

Justin Trudeau this week moved to quell a public backlash to one of the world’s most progressive migration policies by rolling back Canada’s foreign worker scheme.

Trailing in polls ahead of an election next year, the prime minister announced measures to slash the number of new arrivals. But executives worry the measures will curb their supply of cheap labour.

Simranzeet Singh, manager of policy at the Ontario Chamber of Commerce, said that more consultation was needed to ensure “changes do not inadvertently harm our economy or critical services”.

They aren’t “Business Leaders” they’re Welfare Scammers.

And remember The Great Replacement is just a conspiracy!

Low-wage foreign worker fiasco brings migration debate to B.C. election

You can now add immigration to the list of big issues in B.C.’s Oct. 19 election.

B.C. Conservative party Leader John Rustad raised the challenge publicly, even before his party was strengthened by the dramatic collapse on Wednesday of B.C. United.

Rustad threw down the gauntlet on social media after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau admitted Monday that his government had welcomed too many low-wage foreign workers and it was time to “invest in Canadian workers and youth.”

Majority of Canadians believe Liberals’ immigration targets are set too high: poll

OTTAWA — Most Canadians believe the Trudeau government’s immigration plan is admitting too many people, but they’re less clear on the temporary foreign worker program, according to new polling.

Jamie Sarkonak: Trudeau’s TFW changes a sorry distraction from his abuse of the program

Liberal edits to the immigration system are somewhat like a magician’s sleight-of-hand tricks. One hand distracts the audience, while the other maintains the illusion.

The latest flashy distraction came to us Monday: Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault announced that, starting Sept. 26, low-wage temporary foreign worker (TFW) program permit approvals will not be granted in cities with more than six per cent unemployment. TFWs will be limited to one-year stays, and they will only be permitted to make up 10 per cent of their employer’s workforce (down from the 30 and 20 per cent of recent years).

Trudeau government’s abuse of the Temporary Foreign Workers program included dropping fraud prevention safeguards when vetting applications in order to juice the intake numbers

Government officers told to skip fraud prevention steps when vetting temporary foreign worker applications, Star investigation finds

As the Trudeau government promises to crack down on a temporary foreign worker program it admits has been abused, a Star investigation has revealed the government is fast-tracking applications by directing processing officers to skip crucial steps designed to prevent fraud.

Beginning in January 2022, Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) directed staff to apply “streamlining measures” when evaluating the legitimacy of applications by employers who want to hire temporary foreign workers.

According to internal ESDC documents obtained by the Star and interviews with a current ESDC employee, routine checks meant to ensure the system is not abused by unscrupulous employers have been suspended in an effort to process applications faster.

That Great Replacement theory? It’s just a conspiracy!

Many gaps remain in the Liberals’ new restrictions on temporary foreign workers

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced reductions to the temporary foreign worker program Monday, but there are many exceptions to the clampdown that could still see thousands of people brought to Canada for short-term work.

Trudeau said the program needs to be reined in as the country’s unemployment rate rises.

Business wary they may have to pay fair wages if Trudeau restricts number of low-wage foreign slaves

Business groups are raising concerns about Ottawa’s decision to restrict the number of temporary foreign workers coming to Canada, warning that certain industries that are struggling to find workers could be adversely affected.

On Monday, Ottawa announced that employers will not be able to bring in foreign workers through the low-wage stream of the Temporary Foreign Workers Program (TFWP) in regions where the unemployment rate is six per cent or higher from Sept. 26 onwards.

That 6% figure was chosen for a reason, I bet unemployment figures will be jiggled accordingly.

CHARLEBOIS: How Canada’s immigration U-turn could shake up food chain

In response to mounting immigration challenges and high youth employment rates, the federal government has finally decided to tighten its Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP).

Starting Sept. 26, the government will suspend the processing of Labour Market Impact Assessments for the Low-Wage stream of the TFWP in specific census metropolitan areas. This suspension will apply to cities where the unemployment rate is 6% or higher, though the exact locations have yet to be disclosed. While exceptions will be made for sectors critical to food security — such as primary agriculture, food processing, and fish processing — the food service industry will not be spared from these changes.

Ottawa needs to abolish the temporary foreign worker program

Canadians are understandably confused by the state of our international migration programs.

The two main pathways by which people are admitted to Canada to work are as economic immigrants (who can stay permanently) and temporary foreign workers. And the public discourse on the two pathways has been contradictory.

Liberals say they will rein in temporary foreign worker program now that their Great Replacement Scam has done its intended damage of altering Canada’s demographic

Housing Minister Sean Fraser said Sunday that the federal government will curb the number of temporary foreign workers (TFWs) coming into the country after a post-COVID surge that some researchers say has driven up youth and immigrant unemployment rates.

Speaking to reporters in Dartmouth, N.S., before the start of a Liberal cabinet retreat in neighbouring Halifax, Fraser justified the government’s past decision — made while he was immigration minister — to relax regulations around the TFW program as necessary at a time of pandemic-related staff shortages.

But he acknowledged that the dynamic is different now that there are signs of stress in the labour market.

Historic Influx? It was a Great Replacement scam to secure future votes and destroy the value of labour. Fraser is a despicable liar.

Mike Moffatt: The time has come to upend Canada’s temporary foreign worker program

Outside of 2020, when we were in lockdown, 2024 has been the worst year on record for teenagers to get a summer job, whether as a cashier at a convenience store or selling ice cream.

Despite the challenges teenagers are currently having in the job market, the number of temporary foreign workers approved for those same positions has never been higher, thanks to the federal government’s deregulation of the temporary foreign worker program in 2022.

The sudden rise of temporary foreign workers in entry-level office jobs … But The Great Replacement That’s A Conspiracy!

Temporary foreign workers are no longer a rare presence in entry-level office roles.

Last year, employers were approved to hire more than 3,500 administrative assistants via the Temporary Foreign Worker Program, up from just 112 of those roles approved in 2016, according to figures published by the federal government. In addition, companies were authorized to hire nearly 2,000 administrative officers in 2023. (The TFW program accounts for a small share of foreign labour in Canada, so it’s likely that other pathways are being tapped for admin workers, too.)

What a scam, Trudeau and his cronies are working to alter Canada’s demographic so the Liberals can harvest votes and the corporate welfare class can profit by destroying the value of labour.

Since 2015, less than 1 percent of permanent residents admitted to Canada have been through the Federal Skilled Trades Program

Less than half of one percent of the total permanent residents admitted to Canada since 2015 have been through the federal government’s Federal Skilled Trades Program.

According to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada’s (IRCC) quarterly update of permanent residents admitted to Canada, between 2015 and 2023, the total number of people admitted to the country based on their skilled trade qualifications was just 9,924.
