Moose Jaw Men: Employer fined for charging foreign worker for employment

‘Atrocious’: Moose Jaw employer fined for charging foreign worker for employment

A Moose Jaw employer has been fined $5,000 and ordered to pay $12,000 in restitution after pleading guilty to charging a foreign worker a fee or expense to maintain his employment.

These are the first charges laid in Saskatchewan under the Foreign Worker Recruitment and Immigration Services Act (FWRISA).

Dyan Jeny Enterprises, which operates as Guac Mexi Grill in Moose Jaw, pleaded guilty in Moose Jaw Provincial Court on Tuesday to charging Parth Patel an employment-related fee while he was a foreign worker.

The perps are Kartikkumar and Rutvik Patel of Dhyan Jeny Enterprises

One in 10 employers hiring temporary foreign workers found violating federal rules

One in 10 employers inspected under Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program was found to have violated federal regulations last year, with Ottawa more than doubling financial penalties and tripling the number of employers banned from the program.

According to a Jan. 20 briefing note from the labour department, inspectors found widespread non-compliance during investigations into employers participating in the Temporary Foreign Worker Program.

Trucking companies deemed unsafe permitted to employ temporary foreign workers

Nearly 100 trucking companies with a history of safety infractions, labour violations and other regulatory failures have been granted approval by Ottawa to hire temporary foreign workers since 2019, a Globe and Mail investigation has found.

The compliance issues ranged from flunking safety audits to concerns over forged documents. In some cases, companies were approved by Employment and Social Development Canada to use the migrant labour program despite failing to comply with wage theft orders issued by the same ministry.

Ontario overhauls foreign worker program amid fraud concerns

TORONTO – Due to concerns about fraud in one of Ontario’s most important economic immigration programs, the Ford government is effectively tearing it down and starting again.

On Friday, Labour Minister David Piccini announced a sweeping overhaul of the Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program (OINP), which allows the province to fill gaps in local labour markets by asking the federal government to fast-track permanent residency for a set number of foreign workers with in-demand skills.

Doug Ford government rejects Ottawa’s offer to allow rural employers to hire more temporary foreign workers

Ontario will not allow rural employers to hire more temporary foreign workers to fill low-wage jobs, says the province’s immigration minister.

Citing the high youth unemployment rate, David Piccini said in a letter to Ottawa that the province is not interested in raising the cap on the ratio of low-wage, temporary foreign workers permitted from 10 per cent to 15 per cent of a rural employer’s workforce.

In March, the federal government announced to relax the rules because some rural communities continued to face acute labour shortages due to low unemployment rates, and ongoing challenges in attracting, recruiting and retaining workers.

Condo bail outs for wealthy Liberal donors and cheap labour galore for Carney’s corporate cronies.

Elbows Up means means a smash in the face to Canadians.

Maybe Ford has realized his buddy Mark is not all he’s cracked up to be.

This is exactly how they destroyed the mid sized cities in Northern Ontario including Sudbury, Timmins and Sault Ste. Marie.
The "Rural Immigration Program" run by a female Nigerian btw decided to turn all the white northern communities into third world hellholes.

DONUT WAR: Tim Hortons scrambles to reclaim Canadian coffee culture with new PR campaign

Tim Hortons is feeling the heat — responding in droves with a new PR strategy to get Canadians back on its side.

And to think, it all began with a “Hi Scott…”

If readers are unaware of the reference, a post on X, addressed to a podcaster, Scott Fox, who was criticizing Tim Hortons’ abuse of the feds’ temporary foreign workers program (TFWP) in late May, received a response from the coffee shop itself, which indicated this message was a “misperception.”

I don’t believe a word they say.

Temporary foreign worker program cost Ottawa $1.6 billion

OTTAWA — Conservatives are pushing the government to abolish the Temporary Foreign Worker program after newly released government figures showed the program cost Ottawa $1.6 billion over the past five years.

The figures were released through an Order Paper question submitted by Conservative MP Brad Vis.

The Corporate “Labour Shortage” Myth

In March, the Carney government announced a relaxation of rules for the Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) program in rural Canada. At the request of any premier, the allowable share of low-wage TFWs in rural workforces can be increased from 10% to 15%. So far, Manitoba, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia have opted in.

It is notable that most provinces have not chosen to avail themselves of the federal government’s offer to boost TFW numbers. The Canadian public’s support for immigration restriction shows few signs of cooling, and provincial governments are to some extent behaving accordingly.

Temporary foreign worker permits cost taxpayers millions as Ottawa fails to recover fees

Federal records show Ottawa continues to lose millions administering migrant worker permits, with taxpayers covering the shortfall as program fees fail to keep pace with rising costs.

Figures tabled in Parliament reveal the Department of Employment spent $177.7 million last year processing 137,118 permits under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program, while collecting just $146.5 million in fees — leaving a $31.2 million gap.

Everything is a scam in Canada now.

B.C. premier signals he won’t support feds’ expansion of temporary foreign worker scam

B.C. Premier David Eby has signalled he won’t support the federal government’s move to temporarily increase rural employers’ allowances for temporary foreign workers, saying there should be a pathway to permanent residency instead.

It comes after an event Monday on the Sunshine Coast where the local MP re-announced a move to allow rural employers to have up to 15 per cent of their workforce be low-wage temporary foreign workers (TFW).

The new foreign workers cap is up from the current cap of 10 per cent, and would allow for eligible workers to get an automatic one-year extension on their work permits.

Send them back. Send the politicians who support this assault on our economic and social security back with them.

Canadians unmoved by employer labour shortage claims tied to foreign worker program

Canadians are showing little sympathy for employers who claim they cannot find workers and must turn to foreign labour, according to new federal research that suggests public sentiment on immigration is hardening.

A 2025 annual tracking study commissioned by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada found focus group participants were largely unconvinced by arguments that lowering immigration levels would hurt businesses dependent on migrant workers.

Inspections of temporary foreign worker employers in Canada have plummeted — despite a surge of workers

The number of inspections of employers hiring temporary foreign workers has plummeted over the past five years — with most conducted without inspectors ever setting foot on worksites — even as the number of migrant workers and reports of abuse have surged, according to government data obtained by the Star.

Annual inspections fell 57 per cent, from 3,365 in 2020 to 1,435 in 2024, according to Employment and Social Development Canada, the department that oversees the temporary foreign worker (TFW) program.

The food industry’s new addiction? Exploiting The TFW Scam

Canada’s food industry has become addicted to the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP). The numbers tell a sobering story.

In just a few months of enforcement data — from July to late September 2025 — the federal government has listed 26 food-related employers found non-compliant with federal rules governing the program. That’s everything from oyster farms to sushi restaurants, cafes, and food processors. That’s nearly 40% of all companies fined during that period.

NB Seafood Company Fined $1M for Foreign Worker Program Violation

A New Brunswick seafood processing company has been fined $1 million and banned from using a government program to hire foreign workers for failing to comply with federal and provincial labour laws.

Bolero Shellfish Processing Inc., located in Saint-Simon, N.B., received the maximum financial penalty on Sept. 17 for failing to offer appropriate wages and working conditions and for “failing to provide a workplace that was free of abuse,” Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) said in a statement. The company also received a 10-year ban from taking part in the temporary foreign worker (TFW) program.
