“More than 14 percent of young Canadians cannot find work. The Bank of Canada says bringing in too many temporary foreign workers lowers wages and takes jobs from young people. Why is the government still bringing in so many foreign workers?”
“Mr. Speaker, on this side of the House of Commons, we believe in the incredible potential of Canadian youth, yet the Bank of Canada says the surge in temporary foreign workers is driving down wages and making it harder for young Canadians to find jobs. The youth unemployment rate sits at over 14%. While Conservatives would prioritize jobs for Canadian youth, the Liberals are still flooding the labour market with temporary foreign workers when young Canadians cannot find work. Why?”
