And why did we only learn about it from a Conservative MP – not the government and not the media?

I am so tired of this corrupt liberal government, scapegoating, and thinking Canadians are that stupid. Ask our young people that can`t find jobs thanks to all your Temporary Foreign Workers, who work for half. I fought for higher wages and better working conditions in the 60`s for Canadians. Our young know they can`t buy a home or put food on the table. You have to be " "brainless" or brain dead" to not see this? Call an election we shall see if Canadians are stupid!
These Liberals won't take responsibility for anything, it is everybody else's fault in their crooked minded opinion!
