Migrant rights advocates bristle at calls to fill labour shortage in construction with temporary foreign workers, by DearOtherPeople cdnpoli (subs)

The Canadian Construction Association has called for greater access to temporary foreign workers, but rights groups warn that expanding this program without a genuine offer of permanent residency will lead to greater exploitation of migrants.

The construction industry is calling on Immigration Minister Sean Fraser, seen here on Sept. 15, to make significant changes to Canada's immigration system to help address labour shortages.

Canada lags behind its peers on foreign interference legislation: former CSIS officerGlobal News reporter Sam Cooper dropped a bombshell on Parliament Hill earlier this month when he reported that Canadian Security Intelligence Service officials warned the prime minister and several cabinet ministers in January about “a vast campaign of foreign interference” by China in the 2019 federal election. The revelations in Cooper’s story have made shockwaves in Canadian politics and abroad, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (Papineau, Que.) and People’s Republic of China President Xi Jinping clashing at the G20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, after it was reported that Trudeau brought up the interference in a previous private meeting with Xi. Also at the G20, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly (Ahuntsic-Cartierville, Que.) told reporters that “we won’t accept any form of meddling in our governments, in our elections, and we won’t tolerate any form of foreign interference in Canada.” But if the federal government is serious about preventing foreign entities from interfering in Canadian democracy, it should table legislation in Parliament, said national security specialist Michel Juneau-Katsuya, who served as a senior intelligence officer at CSIS from 1984 to 2000, and who on Nov. 29 will testify before PROC on Chinese foreign election interference. “We do not have a foreign-interference law that other countries, like the U.S., the United Kingdom, and Australia have that allows them to investigate and prosecute the people involved,” he told The Hill Times. As reported by Global News, the interference included the funding of at least 11 candidates running for both the Liberal and Conservative parties in 2019. About $250,000 was transferred through an unidentified member of Ontario’s legislature and a federal election candidate staffer, through a “clandestine network” affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and directed by China’s Toronto consulate, according to the Global News report. Further, CSIS warned about the placement of Chinese agents into MPs ChristopherGuly True! It’s why we have so much trouble exporting oil, exporting natural gas. If money is paid by foreign nations to have protestors delay our natural resource projects. They have waged white collar war on Canada. And our current leaders allow it for kickback funding. Corruption.
