    Sadly the worse of the worse won’t cross the scale because they have no license or insurance.

    You’re 100 % right on local GTA rates and if you do find a decent company paying $30 plus a hr , you never get a call back because all the new Canadians with their fake resumes get the jobs . while the rest of us who did things the correct way and got years of experience get stick making peanuts

    Bingo! So many people are assuming these invaders are following the rules.

    You always hear, "how can they run so cheap?", "how can they afford to live?" etc etc. Well, they love 1099 work because they keep every red cent and when they get caught they simply return home and laugh about what they made.

    Why would they bother learning our language, assimilating, following laws or anything else that requires effort when they know they're leaving? Can't blame them. We let them do it.

    We're too busy blaming politics and fighting each other while our birthright is being stolen right in front of our eyes.

    For us dumb Americans, what’s “GTA” and “Driver Inc.”?

    GTA is greater Toronto area. Driver Inc is drivers getting paid like they are independent contractors to avoid paying taxes.
