Q: LOL THE REPORTER ROASTING HIM FOR SPEAKING ONLY IN ENGLISH AND NOT IN FRENCH
A: HE'S TALKING IN THE BACKGROUND AND SHE'S TALKING OVER HIM
 
Fraser just said in french that he isn't that good at french. The dude asking is not happy about that. He asked why is the teleconference is entirely in English, when he is a minister in canada.
 
my assumption is that it is a temporary pause only. (my gut feeling is that they don't want to scrape it because it delivers a negative policital message. Just imagine the headlines: Canadian government stops high skilled worker program - imagine the comments below an article like that from Canadians.) He said nothing regarding whether the principles of the program will change or not.
Also, the moment they cancel FSW, there will no longer be qualified people in the pool for PNP to select. That’s why they string FSW along without telling when it will resume or if it will ever. They need the pool.

The most important crisis plaguing Canada right now.
 
Despite the bullshit answers, can I just say that a federal minister taking questions directly from the public is pretty cool. That would never happen in my country.
Huh? Not exactly open questions. Pre-filtered questions. Its a very Canadian thing.

If the questions were filtered, how come he got roasted for not talking in french? Maybe the people were filtered but they still kinda open, I'd say.

I didn't get the negative comment regarding his French (which seemed pretty good actually). I mean people were asking questions in English...
 
It isn't specifically Canadian. It is done everywhere
The gong show that Canadians do is spectecular though... Bonus points for french. Its even more fun during elections!
 
He knows that people are waiting like hungry wolves for his Immi plans in a couple of weeks. God, the pressure. I know we'll all be disappointed as fuck on the plan, be prepared for it folks.
