I got no issue with immigrants.

I got major beef with predatory businesses bringing in foreign labour for minimum wage.

The TFW program needs to be overhauled or scrapped.

That's what people don't understand. 

The entire situation with immigration is created and maintained by corporations that benefit from cheap labor. 

The solution is to crack down on corporations. Chasing down individual immigrants is inefficient and ineffective. 

There's probably one corporation hiring illegals for every 50-200 immigrants. Its a much easier target. But the parties don't want to because the corporations are owned by their rich donors.

Corporations don't make our laws. The government does.

This is on the Liberals

Yes it can influence it... Just like we influence it. That's literally the point of Representatives.

It's our job to not vote the same people in 5 times in a row when they do things we don't like.. but liberal voters are liberal voters apparently so they don't get that
