Mr. Speaker, we are not talking about a shortage of skilled labour. The unemployment rate in Prince Edward Island is 11%, and the Conservatives are approving temporary foreign worker permits for McDonald's, Burger King, Domino's Pizza, and Cora.
That is not how an economy should be managed. It is resulting in higher unemployment and the abuse of temporary foreign workers.
Will the minister finally commit to launching an independent investigation to get to the bottom of this?
