Employment Minister Jason Kenney and Immigration Minister Chris Alexander have announced an overhaul of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program, effectively conceding there has been growing abuse of the program and a driving down of wages. Kenney said the changes announced Friday are intended to send employers a clear signal that abuse of the program will not be tolerated and that they must redouble their efforts to hire Canadians first.
