The temporary migrant workers’ program is not working for labourers or for employers in many cases, and Canada should learn how to “walk and chew gum” when it comes to the program, says the chair of a Senate committee that visited Atlantic Canada.
Ratna Omidvar, independent Ontario senator and chair of the Standing Committee on Social Affairs, Science, and other senators senators visited P.E.I. and N.B. last month to investigate concerns about temporary migrant workers from them, employers and advocates.
