Patty Hajdu Liberal
“Canadian businesses, especially in Quebec and northern areas, face serious worker shortages. We will make sure Canadian workers come first, but we will also help businesses get the workers they need to grow and create jobs.”
“Mr. Speaker, I think Canadian companies, especially in the province of Quebec, must be very confused right now because, in fact, as many of its members who have spoken to me know, there are dire shortages of labour in particular parts of the country, including in rural and northern areas. We expect that Canadians always come first for labour. We will protect that, but we will also protect Canadian companies to continue to manufacture, to grow and to create those great jobs for everyone else.”
