Initially, temporary foreign workers were brought in to address labor shortages in agriculture and manual industries\u2014sectors where Canadians have traditionally shown limited interest. This approach aimed to fill crucial gaps, but the ongoing economic challenges and rising unemployment rates among youth highlight the persistent struggles in the job market.\n\n\n\n\nHIGHWAY TRAFFIC THIS LONG WEEKEND & ROAD SAFETY AS KIDS GO BACK TO SCHOOL\n\nTasha is now joined by Ontario Provincial Police's acting Sgt.
