Cosoyoos,
Not that I know statistics on labour shortages in Canada, but I do know that there is way too many businesses closing everyday, and way too many people on welfare in this country to justify bringing in people from other countries to work. It urks me to no end how lazy some our in our own country. They are just too lazy to work, thats the problem. They would rather sit on thier butts and collect money from the government.
I work at a large resort here in ON, and in the last few years , the company has brought in workers from other countries to do , what Im guessing a ****ty job, as they are not being filled by Canadians. We have had people from Bahamas, Jamaica, Bermuda, to mention a few.
I think its great that these people are willing to come over here to work and make some money to take home.........( it is strictly monitered, how long they can stay, and we ( the company), must make sure they go back). My problem is that, I ,as a tax payer, pays our lazy Canadains, to sit on their butts and collect welfare, when there are tons of jobs out there for them. Our own government has to crack down on this IMO.
