This is one major reason why many Canadians of my generation (Millennial) or younger are mentally and emotionally checked out of the system. What motivation is there to work hard and try to get when the government flood the market with foreign workers who will work for peanuts and live in horrendous conditions? A friend and former roommate of mine who now lives in Saskatoon is telling me how difficult to land a job and all but confirmed that many of these companies openly discriminate as one Arab-owned cleaning company he applied to hires only other Arabs. I can't tell you how many times I dissociate myself from my surroundings when I'm standing on the train platform because of the radical demographic transformation of the last 20+ years. There's no sense of community apart from the empty "rah rah!" diversity platitudes and I can only sense a deep artificiality in mainstream Canadian culture that reinforces my stance that I have no stake in this country's future.Its a failing system
I imagine that is a factor in the current opioid crisis, but the government either wants to be your drug dealer or executioner via MAiD. The government is going to import someone from an Indian slum to replace you if you die anyway.
