Does any one know what is happenning to the Temporary Foreigh Program ? I know of workers being denied there visas in the Canadian Embassies abroad due to the shortage of non-skilled workers in Canada. Is it true ?

There is still a huge shortage of non-skilled workers. The problem is to get a legitimate entry into the country. Once you are in, there are a lot of employment opportunities in fast food restaurants, supermarkets etc.
