BREAKING: CBC hires Temporary Foreign Workers for media, business and tech jobs in Ontario

On today’s episode of the Candice Malcolm Show, Candice shares documents that Juno News has uncovered showing that CBC has hired at least 20 temporary foreign workers in their Ontario offices. As Candice reports, the CBC has used Labour Market Impact Assessments (LMIA) to claim they cannot find Canadian workers to fill these positions. The CBC, since 2015, has filed at least 20 of these in Ontario, including for positions they deem “high wage.” CBC claims to represent Canadian culture while taking $1.4B annually from the taxpayer, and yet, they prioritize hiring foreigners over Canadians. Later in the show, Candice is joined by Juno News host Alexander Brown to discuss the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) and how it has led to record youth unemployment. They discuss Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s comments yesterday in PEI condemning the Liberal management of the TFWP and his prediction that the numbers will continue to rise despite Liberal promises to cap the program. They also discuss Conservative Immigration Critic Michelle Rempel Garner’s work exposing LMIA and TFWP scams. Next, they discuss a new lawsuit against the CBC over its unwillingness to disclose subscription numbers for their lacklustre streaming service Gem. The CBC takes taxpayer money, then turns around and charges a premium to watch its programming, and on top of that, they’re using even more taxpayer resources to go to court to block an access to information request and defend their lack of transparency.
