Mr. Speaker, there have been more and more cases of abuse of the temporary foreign worker program.
In Alberta, an employee who was paid less than the legal minimum for several years never received her raise when the labour market opinion was renewed in 2012. It was very tragic for this young woman, who lost everything when the company went bankrupt.
Clearly, the new administrative controls do nothing to protect workers from exploitation by unscrupulous employers.
Will the minister do something to put an end to these abuses?
