Absolutely. In our sector, most of the temporary foreign workers are in positions that are highly skilled. The preference of our members would be to hire Canadians, but sometimes that's just not possible. When we look at the data for southern Ontario, there have been just over 5,000 temporary positions in all sectors, 70% of them in advanced manufacturing, and 93% for under 12 months.
It creates uncertainty when people hear a lot of the things in the media. They think we're going to put everybody from McDonald's to advanced manufacturing companies in the same basket. Our president wrote letters to some members of Parliament, which I can send to you after, which call specifically for an advanced manufacturing skilled workers program. We're even ready to fix a certain above-average wage threshold for temporary employment, if necessary. We're not in the business of paying foreign employees less than what's in the Canadian market.
