In the Federal government the situation is not better.
There are people who works for 15 years and still have idea what they are doing. Recently with new Trudo new ideas some people were hired. All of them are visible minorities.
English is not my first language but most of my co-workers understand me very well and I understand them very well. I can not understand any of 14 new employees. ( they work more than a year already) Neither verbally no through emails. English native speakers tell me the same stores. Some of them are asking questions which makes me to wonder if they ever went to the high school or work with computers before. The question is how did they get hired.
The other question is how they past all the competencies to get a higher position?
One of the competencies is written English. How they pass it when they make millions of mistakes in their emails. | 4 | Yep, you can only dream about that.
I live in Canada for the past 27 years. I work in Canadian High Tech industry for the past 25 years.
In my experience very small numbers of immigrants from those or Asian countries are actually skilled.
Once a year we had HR questionnaire about employees ethnicity. Should we be all judged by our skills rather than ethnicity. In private sector you can find the way to get rid of none skilled employee. (not immediately but still you will be able to do that within in time).
As contractor for Ontario ministry of Transportation I noticed that most of IT people are ME or Asian origins.
Most of them were doing nothing. Most of the work was done by contractors and yet we could not get a permanent job in there. (not all the contractors want permanent job). At that time I was personally told by the manager that two position that his department has is for visible minority people.

Hopefully, we will reduce our oil consumption overall so that this becomes less of an issue. | 4 | No Candace. What it means is that we will have leaky pipelines like Sask for longer miles than Sask.. A better alternative is to direct the Atlantic Production to the Canada East coast refineries. This Saudi Arabia slant used by the pro pipeline advocates is a joke.
!. The refineries to be built will be required to have much greater capital cost due to the grade of oil or bitumin coming from the tar sands to be refined. Thus increasing the cost of a liter of gas to all eastern canadian consumers and that increased cost will be there as long as they use Tar sands oil. An increased cost that would be there forever. However a liter would cost Eastern Canadians less if we used our Atlantic oil, Minimum of leakey pipelines required.

2. How do you handle the people on planes at the moment of signing?

Hammond said in her lawsuit that when she told Dorris about her problem, Dorris allegedly told Hammond "to simply not answer phone calls from survivors seeking assistance and counseling."

In 2015 Frau Merkel went a lot further , without so much as a debate in the Bundestag, opened German borders and invited the Middle East and North Africa to move in. And over one and a half million have accepted so far - no vetting extreme or otherwise , zero, zilch. With unpredictable radicals like that in positions of power you can start to understand the angst of the average voter. And maybe you can understand why a new poll gives 49% support for Trump's plan with 41% against. | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45402464, 45388080, 45537352, 45447087, 45404154] |

935,289 | [0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0] | To be honest, I think this is more serious than I realized even a month ago. I do think that Trump's fragile adolescent ego requires a war -- yet another manifestation of his obsession with his mantra, "Mine's bigger than yours." I also think he needs a war to distract from the rest of Bannon's agenda, which is nothing less than "to bring everything crashing down."
I think that two of the generals in Trump's cabinet -- Mattis and Kelly -- are the adults in the room (if they're allowed in the room). They may serve to restrain and contain Trump's worst impulses. However, they're off to a difficult start in that De Facto President Bannon and Steve Miller, the young punk who has the title 'policy director', have effectively kept them out of the loop so far. Mattis and Kelly have too much integrity, too much experience, and too much self-respect to put up with that -- and I don't think they will for very long. Something will have to give. | 6 | I think you are right Mike, this no "accident" ...chaos is the PLAN along with distraction, confusion and most of all LIES.

I think it was Hitler who was quoted as saying you just repeat something often enough until folks believe it.
Francis just a week or so ago commented on Germany in the 30s and the fact that the German people selected Hitler quite freely...he played on their fears and pride?
I think this is vastly more serious than most folks currently realize....I think the possibility for war is very high as that would fit well with Trumps grandiosity and the "I will save you" ( no accident so many generals in the cabinet) and no accident , their hawklike preferences.
I think Trump will sufficiently insult others to provoke a war.... | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45402464, 45485526, 45385682, 45573532, 45197484] |

By the way, you might want to ask an Albertan how well Trudeau has been unifying the country. | 4 | Before the last election, voting reform looked attractive--mostly because the Harper Conservatives, who won a majority with only about 24% of the eligible vote (only 58.8% of eligible voters cast a ballot, whereas 68.3% voted in 2015, the most in 23 years), acted like a dictatorship, and governed only for their base voters.
Many were alarmed at how easily an autocrat could ride roughshod over our institutions, divide us against each other and distort our international reputation, pretty much by fiat.
With Harper gone, concern has largely subsided, so Trudeau's election promise isn't meeting with the interest he feels is needed to push through such a contentious and far-reaching process.
Will dropping the promise hurt Trudeau? I doubt it, although the opposition and the press will try to make hay out of it. I don't think his party won many more votes based on that promise alone, and I think Canadians are still grateful to him for restoring our self respect and optimism. | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45256178, 45535393, 45191524, 45450802, 45633333] |
