I have one last question on temporary foreign workers.

We know that under the Conservatives, a number of fast food restaurants availed themselves of this program. I'm just making sure that we're not staffing up service jobs, which could be filled by Canadians, with temporary foreign workers, and that the temporary foreign worker program is focused on highly skilled labour required for the agricultural sector.

Is that the priority?
