What is he doing to immigrants? His actions are aimed solely at low skilled TFW's who are not immigrants.

This sounds like another one of your typical illogical anti-Conservatives rants.

low skilled TFWs? Do you know how many FSWs were granted the last year. I being a direct victim of some one with a FSW taking over my job. And Kenney started to ruin immigrant's life from the day he started being an immigration minister. It is all the hangover from his old reform party days. The reform party, clearly the red tories, were against immigration and definitely against non-white immigration.

I'm not sure what your point is. First you say that the government is permitting an excessive number of FSW's, but then you go on to say that the same government is against immigration. I'm confused.

I didnt come here as a FSW, I came here as a landed immigrant. But FSWs are hired for the obviously cheap pay that they are paid and not all of them, I would also say most of them, go the PR route. Adding more to my point, the conservative government itself has denied several times the application for PR from 1000s of FSW which proves they want to help their crony corproate buddies with cheap labor but do not want an honest policy on immigration. Hope this helps understanding the vile reform party red tories attitude towards the immigrants.

It sounds like you are confusing FSW (which is a permanent residency program for qualified people to gain landed immigrant status like yourself) and the TFW program (which is for foreign workers).

There are many people on this forum who, like youself, claim that the Harper government is anti-immigrant; however, the figures and statistics show the complete opposite. The Harper government has allowed in more immigrants than any other government in recent history.
