Listen "Analyzing the temporary foreign worker program"
Episode Synopsis
The temporary foreign worker program has come under fire for its potential to abuse workers - and, because it could also shut out existing residents of Canada. Businesses say they need the program, but there is a growing call to scrap it altogether. Amanda Lang takes a closer look with Armine Yalnizyan, Atkinson Fellow on the Future of Workers. Then in her Takeaway segment, Amanda looks at the controversial order for a flock of ostriches in B.C. to be culled.
