DEFENDING THE INDEFENSIBLE

Today's Waterloo Region Record carrys this story "Kenney defends use of foreign workers". Apparently Windsor and other former automotive manufacturing hotbeds in Ontario/Canada have lost their skills. We are to believe that as manufacturing over the last decade has fled to lower cost jurisdictions, so too has Canadian skills, experience and knowledge. How else do you justify bringing in allegedly skilled workers to work in the automotive sector from outside Canada?

As bad as this is we also learn that both our provincial and federal governments have also been hiring temporary foreign workers. Apparently tax paying home grown workers and their parents are the second choice in the domestic labour market. Clearly the Progressive Conservatives are convinced that Canadians are stupid in the extreme. Canadians pay sales taxes, income taxes, property taxes and neverending taxes just for the right to have Canadian jobs and experience ignored by our own local companies and provincial/federal government departments. The time is long overdue for this country to be taken back from the filth that we in our stupidity have put in charge.
