One thing we've been pitching for, which we think is really important, is if companies are going to use the temporary foreign worker program, which is a legitimate HR tool, it should be linked back to training.
So if construction company A is bringing in 500 welders from Ireland, the next time they go to use the TFW program, have they shown the government that they've done something to train Canadians to fill those gaps? It should be linked back.
We've been pushing pretty hard on Minister Kenney's office to do something. So if companies are going to use the program, that's fine. It's legitimate. But what are they doing, what's their training plan in terms of finding Canadians? It can't be used as a full-time HR strategy.
