Read StatsCan's recent realization in the G&M under the heading 'wage and job quality declining for young workers' in Canada.  This is happening across the board! I know a number of professional mechanical and electrical engineers who cannot find work in Canada, and they speak the language because they grew up and were educated here.  If these senators know about some great job market in Canada where Syrian refugees will get work after they complete years of language and skills training, could they ask if young Canadians could fill those jobs now, just to keep the seats warm for all those refugees who are the only concern of politicians and senators right now.

Face it -- Canada's jobs market is declining due to outsourcing, globalization and advances in technology.  The Mowat Centre reported last week that 40% of existing jobs in Canada will disappear within 15 years.

Politicians and senators must stop living in the 1950s.  THEY NEED REALITY TRAINING.
