Is Canada Forcing 1.3M Workers to Leave? ft. Nir Rozenberg
Are 1.3 million foreign workers facing an exodus? We uncover Canada’s new LMIA restrictions and the hidden crisis crushing local businesses today.
In this episode, we break down:
The dramatic shift in Canada's LMIA program from a simple process to a heavily restricted and audited system.
How the new 6% unemployment rule is practically acting as a ban on low-wage foreign workers across most of the country.
The reality of the 1.3 million work permits expiring by 2026 and why employers are struggling to retain their essential staff.
The United Nations report comparing aspects of the temporary foreign worker program to contemporary slavery and Canada's regulatory response.
The impossible new banking attestations required for businesses, and expert advice for immigrants currently stuck in a vanishing PR pathway.
