Illegal Immigrants

Jason Kenney Dept: He floods the country with 250,000 immigrants a year, even though most cannot find jobs commensurate with the education and skills they were selected for. Tens of thousands of Canadian-educated graduates cannot find jobs either. His is an exploitative model that suits only the corporate sector driving wages and worker demands down, profits up, according to The Star. Kenney does not know how many temporary workers leave at the end of their visas and how many disappear into the underground economy, thereby exposing themselves to further exploitation and also lowering wages for others. Canada is on the same disastrous course as the U.S., which has millions of illegal immigrants, who are exploited and resented at the same time and Jason Kenney is a clever politician juggling contradictory goals. This arrangement is augmented with his even more blatantly exploitative temporary workers program. Employers get foreigners at a legislated lower wage than Canadians. The scandalous RBC case is one twist in a complicated labour scam, as fellow columnist Tom Walkom explained on Wednesday . (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
