Federal Employment Minister and Jason Kenney

Jason Kenney: In Manitoba on Wednesday, the federal employment minister reiterated that employers who abuse the program could face fraud charges and jail time. The program remains under review and further changes will be announced soon, he added, according to The Star. The more important thing is that we prevent abuse in the first place and thats why we ve tightened up the rules, and we ll continue to do so and Jason Kenney says only small numbers of companies are abusing Ottawas controversial temporary foreign workers program as a major fast-food chain freezes its participation and a respected economist casts fresh doubt on the extent of Canadas skills shortage. Obviously, in some small numbers, there are cases of abuse, and we dont tolerate those; we intend to crack down on them severely, Kenney said. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
