That is correct. In many provinces their PNP programs currently do have similar programs where, after working a period of time as a temporary foreign worker, you can apply for permanent residency.
Initially when we supported these types of policies, we were concerned that workers would simply leave once they became permanent residents, leave our industry, and move to different parts of Canada. We've done follow-up studies with our members, and we've found that the folks who come to Canada as temporary foreign workers working in our industry gain experience, end up moving up through the chain in the restaurants, and, once they are sponsored for permanent residency, stay in the restaurants. We've had very little complaints about the loss of that labour.
So this is definitely a policy that would be very attractive to us.
