Foreign Workers

foreign workers: In the last installment of a three-part study on unemployment in the country, titled The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: Looking at Canadas Post-Recession Job Market," the Board reveals that the number of temporary foreign workers in the country reached 360,000 in December 2012, more than double the 150,000 figure of 2006, according to Huffington Post and More temporary foreign workers are gravitating towards Canada while many citizens still struggle to secure a job, and the Conference Board of Canada doesn't really know why. But since 2006, the Canadian labour market has changed, the unemployment rate has increased 6.3 per cent in 2006, currently at 7.1 per cent and the country, along with the rest of the world, went through the 2008 recession. So, the Board asks, why are more temporary foreign workers coming in when "Canadian youth are struggling to secure employment"? (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
