    Better work ethics but not too many smarts to be out there working for peanuts.

    No, four weeks isn't enough. 80,000 pound rig worth a couple hundred grand, value of the load, no. Four weeks isn't enough. Yes there is a need, no doubt. Until companies change their ways, they will keep on keeping on with the TFW program.

    That TFW BS is something else that needs to go away. Until the unemployment rate is zero there is no need to bring in foreigners to take money from our economy and send it back to their home countries.

    If you weren't aware the temporary foreign worker programme has more or less been suspended to hard and to costly for employers to bring in workers ' and plus the fact that there is an Abundance of drivers available in Canada since the oilfields closed down .

    Yeah but I recall you had run in the bush a whole pile of miles and back with no issues. I knew you'd be a keeper. :)
