“The minister is not answering my question. Temporary foreign worker permits went from 72,000 in 2015 to 190,000 in 2024, while youth unemployment is at 15%. The Prime Minister called this a failure. I want to know if the minister agrees with him.”
“Mr. Chair, the minister is failing to answer the question. She is failing to acknowledge that she has actually let in more temporary foreign workers. The TFW permits have gone from 72,000 in 2015 to 190,000 in 2024. That is a 163% increase, all while youth unemployment is at 15%. The Prime Minister himself called this a failure of execution. Does she agree with that statement, at least?”
