    Also, most people who want to use the TFW program need to show a certain bare minimum effort to hire people who live in Canada, but not for agriculture!

    employers won’t be required to meet TFW Program minimum advertising requirements or submit proof with their LMIA application.

    Then again, what the bare minimum effort to hire Canadians often looks like is job postings, and maybe even interviews, for jobs that they will never actually hire a Canadian for because that costs more than a TFW.
    The difference between “required to look” and “required to find” is very large.

      At least in IT, the old scam was to require a certification create by the recruiting company that only the foreign workers would have. This was 15 years ago though, I’m not sure if they’re still doing it but things rarely change.
