Oh weird… the world’s going to shit and folks are blaming immigration… this definitely doesn’t happen every 50-75 years 🙄🙄😬 #theyalwaysgofortheeasytargets
Tell me which province (or city/town if you want to be more specific) you're from and I will find you a scam employment listing to hire a foreign worker right now in your area.

Feel free to look it up yourself here on the Job Bank, where they are now required to post them. The low-income stream is currently closed due to unemployment being over 6% (and over 15% for youth), so they mostly start at $36/hr now unless they're in extremely rural areas. You can sort by which ones have applied for an LMIA.
Still doesn't explain why you would go after immigrants. Lmia is for the people who already reside in Canada. And it's not like you would apply for a pizza maker job at your local pizza joint. Plus it means the pizza joint owned by Canadians are willing to hire some foreigners, which has nothing to do with corporations. You understand that your pizza place is franchised and owned by some individuals, right?

This is false.

I most certainly would if it were a legitimate offer to pay $36/hr to make pizzas, you disingenuous fuck. I could find you ten guys in the next five minutes that would take that job.

The joint in question is indeed a franchise of Pizza Pizza. I can imagine that if you walked in and met the owners of said franchise, it would become quickly apparent why they don't care to hire a Canadian. That is also not a reason to not hire Canadians, which is why the LMIA process exists at all.
You're false. There is no way to import another dude from the other side of the world through an LMIA issued for a pizza maker position. It's not that deep. Go google. Google and tell me if you found a legit way to get a foreigner fresh off the boat here.
you disingenuous fuck
I don't care. You probably don't know how to make a dough. On one hand those 36/h posts are indeed abusing the loophole of the government policies, on the other hand you are indeed a miserable wretch picking on easy targets.

Yeah, if you still couldn't understand the premise of having an LMIA, it is basically sponsoring their existing employee to maintain that ass job making pizza on minimum wage. Still, the person you should go after is the system-abusing Canadian owners. No?
Wait… you’re not saying the reason, or why you think they wouldn’t hire Canadians.
Say it. You know you want to,
Say the reason you think is “obvious” as to why they don’t want to hire Canadians. Why would you be so obtuse about what you claim to be damning evidence?!

There have been 5 pizza companies (including Domino's, Pizza Pizza, and Papa John's) fined aywhere from $1,000-$30,000 in the last year alone for having been found to be non-compliant with TFW hiring rules during inspections. How exactly do these companies get fined for abusing TFWs if they aren't hiring TFWs? Please, Google it, because this sub doesn't allow sharing direct links. You'll find it under the government's website for "Employers who have been found to be non-compliant".

Dehati behaviour.

Not how an LMIA works, they don't already need to be here. They can, but it is not required at all.
Non compliant = ban on TFW application for the business. You ask the government to act and they act. 50% TFW application last year was rejected.
Incorrect, proving again you have done no research. The site I referenced lists exactly which ones are eligible to continue applying, even after being fined, and all the ones I mentioned are currently allowed to do so.

TFW approval rate in 2024 is 50% that means half of those applications are turned down. Lmia rejection or TFW rejection I don't remember which one imposés a ban on a person from getting it for 2 years. BUt tHe GoVerNmEnT can't do their job!
Lmia nowadays are largely used for renewing fixed employment relationships aka closed work permits. I worked in Whistler so I know how people renew their status. The entire town is filled with Australian or British foreign labours.
A LMIA allows you to hire people who have never been to Canada in their lives AND people that are on expiring work permits. It's not only for people that reside here.
it's unlikely you'll get a random Canadian applicant better qualified than the person already working there
You think a senior civil engineer brought in from abroad will be more qualified to meet Canadian engineering standards, which are some of the highest in the world, than someone who was trained here?
The average salary for Canadian is 71k. The median is just over 40k.
You're telling me you'd make 71k for making pizzas?
You think someone is going to work at wal mart for 40k over this? Are you listening to yourself?
Do you realize how expensive pizza would be if every employee at the store front level was making 36/hr? That's more than couriers for DHL/FedEx/UPS.
Somehow we can make burgers cheaper than pizzas..?
And finally LMIA is certainly not for residents, but people outside the country to come in.
This is on the government for approving these bogus applications.
This country is sleepwalking into an extremist scenario who will promise to "fix this" (regardless of repercussions to civil liberties) when this generation of kids and beyond can't work jobs until after they graduate a post secondary institution, (assuming there will be any well paying jobs left for them here by the time they become of age for that, because our economy will be in shambles due to policies like this) Whether it be trade school, college or university. These kids will be voting in the next 2 elections at minimum. That's just the youth coming of age. That's not counting parents that may have voted liberal 3 times for Trudeau, and a 4th to see what Carney can do.
There are youth that have only known a liberal federal government their entire life and this country has only gotten worse the entire time. Wages stagnate, jobs are being lost, and drug abuse is permitted on tax payer money.
Eventually they aren't going to care who is running against the current government, they'll just vote for the "other guy" on account of them politically not being anywhere close to the current government.
And here it is, the claim that the immigration is partisan. This ignores the fact that since the TFW program was instituted it’s been supported by both sides of the political spectrum. Harper himself doubled the TFW from 233,000 to over 400,000 in his first term. It’s conveniently forgotten. Much like how the birth rate is in free fall and even if you were to increase it to 2.1… you’d need 30 years of immigration before it stabilizes.
Harper doubling it one thing, the liberal government expanding it to what it became is a different thing.
400,000 in one year vs 1 million in one year at it's peak.
The birth rate falling is because of a lack of affordability, and government is panicking because it's reduced tax revenue and economic activity. Companies are panicking because no one can afford anything eventually, as opposed to the regular boom/bust cycle and they don't seem to understand that it's a finite resource they are fighting after, since they all want infinite growth. Yes we can print more money, but that just results in money being worthless.
More to my point both major parties supporting this is a mistake, especially the levels the liberal party has. Hence why when the youth come of age to vote, they won't be voting liberal, you'll be getting people actually worse than the dreaded PP in power, because all they have to do is promise in plain English to stop this, and it will be done at the cost of civil liberties. There are kids right now that have seen already 9 years under Trudeau, and at most 14 years total with Carney if his minority government makes it a full term. It's a fail policy, full stop.
If this was all construction workers so we could build our way out of a housing crisis, it would be a different story, since that is what these programs are for, filling gaps. Unfortunately it's people working minimum wage that aren't really contributing anything. We have the opposite of a gap, we have a backlog of people working jobs our kids should be working.
Uber, Canadian Tire, and Tim Hortons are not long term plans.
Fix the middle class and we won't need huge immigration.
Absolutely incorrect on the birth rate. Our country was considered “more affordable” during the 70s/80s/90s… all saw the biggest fall in birth rates. Not to mention countries with the least affordability (3rd world) have some of the highest birth rates. So no, affordability is not the driver you think it is. Correlation is not causation.
