Misuse of Ontario government’s in-demand stream for truck drivers

Truck drivers in Ontario call Doug Ford to introduce strict rules for the province’s in-demand stream.

No matter how the Government increases transparency and uses the help of professional police, many people are still misusing the immigration system.

Some companies that do not have a good track record are using the government of Ontario’s in-demand stream for truck drivers.

Apparently, they reduce rates, but under the table, there is money exchange to nominate foreign drivers. Until the community raises its voice on this issue and the government introduces strict laws, this issue will not be resolved.

Canada will help vulnerable women and girls in Central America

On December 7, 2021, the Government of Canada announced a new initiative to protect vulnerable women and girls in the northern part of Central America.

Social and economic instability have forcibly displaced thousands of women and girls and led to the increase of irregular migration.

Working with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR), Canada aims to help 5,000 women and girls affected by irregular migration and forced displacement in Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador.

Over the next 4 years, the Government plans to invest $10 million to empower and protect women and girls in the region.

International students, truck driving and abuse of the system

International students coming from India face challenges to support their education and the cost of living in Canada.

Because of the limit of 20 hours per week, these students work unofficially to meet their expenses.

Some students approach driving schools that sell Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) to foreign nationals to become permanent residents in Canada.

They face exploitation and pay money to get an LMIA. In addition to Indian students, many immigrants coming from India as a cook or a chef also start driving trucks because it pays more money.
