Its just that someone passed along a business card to me and indicated that the person on the card, the person who's business it was to assist foreigners in their quest to work here within our borders was in fact your wife. Well you can imagine my surprise to hear such a thing. I mean to hear that the person who for the most part has been responsible for leading the amazingly brave and honourable charge against those who are not great Canadians such as ourselves and who would come here and be gainfully employed by companies who followed the letter of the law to do so. Well I refused to believe it. My god could you imagine such a person, one who could with a straight face do such a thing. I mean to lead such a noble charge against those who seek to undermine our great economy and yet at the same time profess him or herself to be the great protector and actually support that which he has such a great disdain for. I still find it incomprehesible.
But alas I am a mere human and my curiosity has gotten the better of me. So please Gilles, please say it ain't so.
The point you are missing, Dick, is that his brave and honourable charge has not been against foreigners; it has been against companies that circumvent the law to use foreigners in order to gain competitive advantage. An intelligent person would probably also understand that somebody whose profession it is to help foreigners find work in Canada would being doing so through proper legal channels, following the regulations, or their career would likely end up being fairly short. An intelligent person would also likely be able to draw the conclusion that if one's spouse did, in fact, work in such a capacity it would definitely provide one with invaluable insight into how the whole system works, and how it might be abused by some entities.
But perhaps you are not an intelligent person.
By the way, I have no idea what one's wife does or does not do for a living. Nor do I care.
