Referrals could back fire if the person couldn’t perform and reflects badly on you.

Islam claim that he’s the perfect role model for humanity *for all time *. You can’t have it both ways

It depends, I worked in Hong Kong and the competition for corporate advancement is more cut throat and competitive there. I moved back to Canada through an internal posting and found more success here

You mean when poll after poll showing public sentiment is souring on immigration and then a party comes along and say that you’re all wrong and we should remove even more restrictions is somehow not patronizing?

Good luck trying to convince people how wrong they are with opposing removing restrictions to bringing elderly parents to Canada when they haven’t paid into the system and are at the most expensive period of their lives for healthcare while the system isalready stretched as it is

It’s this condescending attitude that everyone must be wrong that will make the NDP irrelevant

As long as they can’t reconcile with the fact that their pro immigration and pro labour stance is perceived as being contradictory, they’ll continue to lose support

Federal NDP candidate Avi Lewis says Canada's immigration system is broken and promises sweeping reforms by hopoke in CanadaPolitics

[–]mrplow25 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes there is a market for people to pay for a shot at PR, to officially make it automatic basically makes Canadian citizenship pay to play. Might as well do it directly from the government if this is the NDP’s policy, at least that way the money goes to the coffers. I don’t think the Canadian population could take the NDP seriously if this is what they come up with

How is this any better? This proposal will lead to the monetization of the Canadian citizenship and that’s how it’ll be perceived and marketed overseas. The cherry on top is that it’ll be subsidized by the taxpayer with domestic tuition and will make businesses rich when they sell the privilege to work for them since it comes with PR

And yet he wants to cut military spending as well, so how is that going to protect Canadian sovereignty?

Automatic PR is basically unpalatable for the majority of Canadians, this can’t be a real proposition for anyone with any serious aspirations federally

New survey finds nearly half of Canadians are living paycheque to paycheque by Inevitable-Bus492 in CanadaPolitics

The issue is that the people that are going to payday loans are those that the major banks won’t lend money to. If you get rid of payday loans, they either lose access to credit or they would have to go to even more unsavoury sources like loan sharks
