What would make it easier, first of all, is the advertising. When you're in agriculture, you're advertising all the time to get a Canadian to come and work for you. Why, two weeks prior to an LMIA, do you have to prove that you have been advertising to try to hire a Canadian? It doesn't make sense. We're trying to do it all the time.
Right now, with the four agriculture streams, there are four different rules to going into these LMIAs. Going forward, it would be nice to have more of a streamlined process. You have to fill out all the substantial information in all of these LMIAs—employer's letters, the proof of advertising—which then goes back to the Service Canada officer who is probably confused as to what questions they should be asking these people.
I think the LMIA process just needs to be more streamlined and have the right officers asking the question. If we could get Canadians to work, we would not be spending the money we spend on temporary foreign workers, but we cannot.
