New Delhi: The October 28 deadline to quit notwithstanding, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he plans to lower the number of low-wage, temporary foreign workers and permanent residents being let into Canada. “We’re going to have fewer temporary foreign workers in Canada. We’re bringing in stricter rules for companies to prove why they can’t hire Canadian workers first,” Justin Trudeau wrote in a post on social media platform X.
Trudeau’s post comes amid Canada’s grappling with a rapidly growing population that economists say has put a strain on housing and public services like healthcare. Data from federal statistics have shown that 97 per cent of Canada’s population was due to immigration.
Addressing a press conference, Trudeau said he is looking to overhaul the temporary foreign workers programme because of changes to the labour market. “It’s not fair to Canadians struggling to find a good job, and it’s not fair to those temporary foreign workers, some of whom are being mistreated and exploited,” BBC reported quoting Trudeau.
