In recent years, we've seen the number of temporary migrant workers skyrocket. They come here to work for six months or a year, sometimes a bit more.
A moment ago, we were talking about students and young people. It sometimes seems as though, had there been a better structure in place, people from here could have been trained in advance in order to put Canadians to work, first and foremost, in sectors with labour shortages. Instead, we seem to be taking the easy way out. Indeed, rather than investing, employers bring workers in from outside the country. They work for however long is needed and are then sent back to their countries.
How can we make use of the temporary foreign worker program in a way that fosters a better structure for training Canadians?
