Replying to Brad Redekopp (Conservative)
“Mr. Speaker, the temporary foreign worker program suppresses wages, creates poor working conditions and kills entry-level jobs for our Canadian youth. Now, we have learned that the Liberals spent $1.6 billion over the last five years to administer the TFW program, and they lost $500 million in the process. Instead of issuing 215,000 new foreign work permits this year, the Liberals should immediately abolish the TFW program and replace it with a fair deal for young workers, food‑producing industries and regions with extremely low employment. When will the Liberal government abolish the expensive, wasteful and destructive temporary foreign worker program?”

Mr. Speaker, Claims · 99 wordsthe temporary foreign worker program is administered with three principles.1 First of all, the program makes sure that any Canadian who wants that job comes first. Second of all, it makes sure that employers that are eligible for temporary foreign workers treat those workers with respect and honour and follow those rules. We have inspectors to make sure that happens.2 The third principle is to make sure that employers in areas where very tight employment exists can access workers to keep their businesses alive, which is something that many of that member’s colleagues have written to me to expand.3
