5,000 young people lined up at a Calgary job fair… while 🇨🇦 keeps pretending this is a mystery. Youth unemployment near 14%. Summer jobs shrinking. Entry-level roles harder to find. But it’s not just “the economy.” It’s older workers delaying retirement because living costs exploded. It’s businesses cutting hiring...

Tim Hortons lobbied to replace Canadian workers — now it’s time to replace them Tim Hortons says they can’t find workers. Meanwhile, Canadian kids can’t find jobs, and instead of fixing that, Tim Hortons went to Ottawa asking for permission to replace them. In a May 27, 2024, lobbying letter to then immigration minister Marc Miller, Tim Hortons admits: “without international workers and international students... business would struggle immensely.” Then comes the ask: raise the Temporary Foreign Worker cap from 20% to 30%. That’s nearly one in three workers not being Canadian — but they didn’t stop there. The company also pushed for a dedicated food service immigration stream with a pathway to permanent residency, locking in a permanent replacement workforce. At the same time, they want international students working up to 30 hours a week — hours that used to belong to Canadian teenagers trying to get their first job. And here’s the most infuriating part: Tim Hortons openly admits these jobs matter. They say these jobs help “develop a wide range of skills and build promising careers” and serve as “a stepping stone to integrate into our country.” Exactly. That’s why those jobs used to go to Canadian kids. Instead, youth unemployment is climbing, with nearly one in five young Canadians struggling to find work. Entry-level jobs, the first rung on the ladder, are disappearing. Strip away the corporate language and it’s simple: lower wages, replace local workers, and lock in a dependent labour pool. No jobs for our kids? No money from us. It’s time for a boycott. REPORT by Sheila Gunn Reid:

The bottom rung of the career ladder just vanished. Everyone standing on it is in freefall. Dario Amodei stood at Davos and told an entire generation their entry into professional life is gone. Not threatened. Gone. AI doesn’t help with entry-level work. It replaced it. Amodei: “It can do entry-level law. Entry-level finance. Entry-level consulting.” The foundation work that built every career just ceased to exist. Research that took months. Analysis that took weeks. Documentation that built competence over years. All instant. All flawless. All free. The economics are extinction-level. AI transforms senior talent into gods. It simultaneously deletes the proving ground where everyone else learned to be useful. Graduates aren’t competing with each other. They’re competing with tireless intelligence that costs nothing, makes no mistakes, and improves daily. Amodei: “My concern with AI is it’s coming at us faster.” Agricultural revolution: centuries. Industrial revolution: generations. This: everywhere, everyone, right now. Entire professions collapsing in months, not lifetimes. This is speed as weapon. Jobs die faster than replacements spawn. No grace period. No retraining window. Just instantaneous irrelevance across every field that touches a keyboard. Amodei: “We can’t deny that it will also eliminate jobs.” Every prior technology birth more jobs than it killed. AI murders that pattern. It doesn’t disrupt one sector. It automates all human thought work simultaneously. This isn’t about getting more efficient. It’s about economic survival for tens of millions whose education became obsolete mid-degree. One equation matters: create faster than AI destroys. AI accelerates exponentially. Creation crawls linearly. The gap isn’t a problem to solve. It’s a chasm swallowing futures in real time with no bottom visible. Your degree isn’t worth less. It’s worth nothing. And the system that sold it to you has no answer for what you do now.

So here’s Patty Hajdu, Canada’s Jobs Minister, explaining why it’s totally fine that young Canadians can’t find work. She actually said this: “Temporary foreign workers are about 70% less than a few months ago. Low-wage TFWs are less than 1% of the workforce.” Sounds good, right? But then in the very next breath she admitted the program is still “critical” in areas with low unemployment, the kind of loophole that allows McDonald’s and Tim Hortons to keep importing cheap foreign labor while Canadian kids sit at home without jobs. And when she was pressed on that abuse, she didn’t deny it. She bragged that the process is “onerous.” Employers have to post on the Job Bank for four weeks, pay a fee, do an interview. Then Ottawa “tracks” the applications. In other words, she defended the bureaucracy, not Canadian workers. But the real kicker came when she was asked about youth unemployment. She admitted it’s spiking, but shrugged it off with a metaphor: “Many economists say youth are the canary in the coal mine.” The canary in the coal mine? Imagine being twenty years old, can’t find a job, rent’s through the roof, and your government calls you a canary. So let’s translate this. If you’re a Temporary Foreign Worker, life is good, Ottawa built an entire program to protect your job. If you’re a Liberal insider, life is even better, you get the contracts and the consultants’ fees. But if you’re a young Canadian? You’re the canary in the coal mine. That’s not a jobs plan. That’s contempt.

Australians Are Being Pushed to the Brink And Labor’s Mass Immigration Program Is Driving the Crisis This isn’t a blunder. It’s not poor planning. It’s deliberate. Under Anthony Albanese, 1.2 million net migrants have been brought in, and now we’re looking at 2 million by the end of his second term. All with no serious plan for housing, infrastructure, or jobs. And it’s everyday Australians who are paying the price. Families can’t find a rental. Young people have no shot at buying a home. Working Australians can’t keep up with the cost of living. Meanwhile, Labor floods the country, and pretends it’s got nothing to do with it. But we know the truth: More people. Not enough homes. Soaring demand. Exploding prices. That’s not a coincidence, it’s basic economics. Labor keeps falling back on the same tired line, “we need skilled workers.” But that excuse has collapsed. The majority coming in on “skilled” visas aren’t tradespeople or filling urgent needs. It’s not targeted. It’s not balanced. And it’s not working. There is no national plan. Just a population surge that serves Labor's political agenda, while ordinary Australians are left behind. One Nation is standing firm: Cut immigration to sustainable levels Fix the housing crisis with real supply, not spin Put Australians first Because if we don’t act now, the pressure won’t ease. It’ll get worse. Watch my full interview with Chris Kenny here.

Tim Hortons claims to prioritize hiring Canadians but job postings tell a different story Tim Hortons has positioned itself as a Canadian icon, wrapping itself in the flag while simultaneously lobbying the government to expand and entrench the Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) program. Lately, it seems Tim Hortons has been feeling the fall out of their deteriorating brand. As Dunkin’ Donuts announces its expansion into Canada, the once Canadian staple now claims it will commit to hiring local — whatever that means. However, their active job listings on the government of Canada’s Job Bank tell a difference story. Tim Hortons currently has roughly 800 active postings recruiting temporary foreign workers across the country, including management roles paying up to $36 per hour. One such posting for the rural, southeastern Ontario Havelock location was removed only recently. As Rebel News continues to expose Tim Hortons’ heavy reliance on the TFW program — which is nothing against the workers themselves who are simply navigating a system ripe for exploitation — this has triggered tough questions about corporate priorities while Canadian youth struggle with a growing jobs crisis. One in five young Canadians report being unable to find an entry-level job, and positions such as a counter worker at Tim Hortons used to give those entry-level opportunities to youth. Instead, many locations now appear dominated by temporary, foreign staff. Street interviews at the Tim Hortons location in Havelock revealed strong public sentiment toward hiring Canadians first. “I think it’s terrible,” said one patron, on the influx of foreign labour. “We’ve got to stay true to our core as well. When we lose the balance, we fail as a humanity.” Another local resident observed: “I just know that these are the type of positions that kids can start off working… I go to my local Tim Hortons, I don’t see that population being represented.” Several interviewees admitted they now avoid the chain when possible, citing a feeling that it has become “foreign” to them and lamenting the lack of alternatives in rural areas with drive-thrus. One current employee confirmed the skewed staffing reality, noting scheduling practices that place more English-speaking staff during the busy morning rush, with TFWs often assigned to later shifts. Tim Hortons has responded to this scrutiny not with greater transparency, but by trespassing Rebel News journalists, including Ezra Levant and David Menzies, across multiple locations. During this Havelock report, Ontario Provincial Police were dispatched after store owners complained that two female journalists were speaking to customers. This is another perfect example of how Tim Hortons locations are abusing resources, especially in a small community without it’s own police force. Canadians already pour hundreds of millions of dollars into the TFW program every year, and now they’re forced to foot the bill for police to handle fallout from critical media coverage too. As Canada enters a ‘technical’ recession and youth unemployment is rising, the core issue remains pretty straightforward: entry-level service jobs that once built work experience for Canadian teens and young adults are now being sidelined by a federal program meant for genuine labour shortages. “Put Canadians first,” was the repeated message from the sidewalk. “Hire Canadians before foreign workers. I don’t have anything against people coming to our country… but it also shouldn’t be on the backs of Canadians. And especially Canadian youth.” Tim Hortons’ actions continue to test whether a national brand still believes its future lies with the communities it serves or with cheaper, temporary labour that undercuts them. The public is watching. REPORT by Tamara Ugolini 🇨🇦:

Tim Hortons says it's putting Canadians first — but is it really? With Tim Hortons saying it vows to hire more “local” staff, Rebel News investigated a Montreal location that was listed on a government job portal for businesses seeking to hire temporary foreign workers. Tim Hortons recently announced plans to hire up to 10,000 local employees and reduce its reliance on the Temporary Foreign Worker Program. However, a closer look at publicly available government data raises questions about whether that shift is already taking place. Several Tim Hortons locations continue to appear on the federal government's temporary foreign worker job portal, actively advertising positions for foreign workers. This comes at a time when Canada's unemployment rate has climbed to 6.9%, while youth unemployment is hovering around 14%. The issue raises broader questions about priorities in the Canadian labour market. With more Canadians struggling to find work and economic uncertainty looming, some are asking whether available jobs should be offered to Canadian workers first. During a visit to a Tim Hortons location in downtown Montreal, multiple job openings were found being advertised, including positions offering wages of up to $39 per hour. Another detail that stood out was that some of the postings appeared to be open to applicants who speak only English, rather than requiring French or bilingualism. That has sparked questions about language requirements in Quebec, where French is the official language. The situation comes as Tim Hortons faces growing scrutiny over its use of temporary foreign workers and its role in providing entry-level employment opportunities. For many Canadians, particularly young people, jobs at restaurants and coffee shops often serve as a first step into the workforce, providing valuable experience and skills. As debates continue over immigration levels, Canadians are left to decide whether Tim Hortons is living up to its promise of putting local workers first. Rebel News

Why won't they hire Canadians? Act For Alberta truck warns Tim Hortons: 'not a pathway to citizenship' Fast-food chains like Tim Hortons are abusing a program designed for temporary labour — not as a permanent staffing model for multinational corporations. The Act for Alberta billboard truck made a pit stop at Tim Hortons this week with a message that hit harder than a double-double when you're under-caffeinated: “Tim Hortons should not be a pathway to citizenship.” The truck rolled through a Tim’s drive-thru plastered with criticism of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and the company’s reliance on it, highlighting growing frustration from Albertans who feel locked out of entry-level jobs that used to belong to students and young workers. And the numbers are ugly. Youth unemployment for Canadians aged 15 to 19 is hovering around 20%, according to recent labour market data. That means one in five Canadian teenagers looking for work can’t find it. Meanwhile, major fast-food chains continue bringing in temporary foreign workers for jobs that generations of Canadian kids once used to get their start in the workforce. The TFW program was intended for true TEMPORARY labour shortages, not as a permanent staffing model for multinational corporations. Act For Alberta is a registered third-party advertiser promoting Alberta independence. Act For Alberta says Tim Hortons has become one of the most visible symbols of the problem: a Canadian icon increasingly staffed through immigration streams while young Canadians struggle to land basic part-time work. The stunt drew plenty of attention from customers in the drive-thru, many honking and taking photos of the truck as it made its coffee run.

🚨 The silent flood: Canada's hidden immigration crisis While Canadians obsess over the heavily scrutinized Temporary Foreign Worker Program, the real elephant in the room quietly flooding the country with nearly a million temporary workers every year remains completely under the radar. The International Mobility Program (IMP) is the Liberals' favourite backdoor for mass, unmitigated migration. It’s a largely underreported program that is wreaking absolute havoc on Canadian housing, health care, wages, and the future for young Canadians. It comes in stark contrast to the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) that dominates in headlines, which requires a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) for entry. Employers have to prove they can't find Canadians first, through the assessment process. It’s well documented that this is not a foolproof process and that program is riddled with fraud, exploitation and abuse, but the IMP? It doesn’t even need a LMIA! Instead, the IMP is mostly wide open to anyone under international agreements, intra-company transfers, post-grad work permits, spousal open permits, and dozens of exemptions. Non-permanent residents with employment income are broken down into a few different categories under the umbrella of foreign workers with work permits, including the TFWP, the IMB for work purposes, IMB for study purposes, IMB for other purposes, study permit holders without a work permit and “other” temporary residents without a work permit. In the 2025 Report to Parliament on Immigration, Minister Lena Diab approved the message that this is “based on the broader economic, cultural, or other competitive advantages for Canada and reciprocal benefits enjoyed by Canadians and permanent residents.” Yet the surge has been entirely unprecedented. The report notes that “in 2024, there were 191,630 individuals with new work permits under the TFWP” verses a staggering “717,405 individuals with new work permits under the IMP.” That’s more than half a million more people than the TFWP; almost four-times as many! The largest source country for this is influx is India, followed by Ukraine. Year after year, the IMP dwarfs the TFWP, with the disparity growing a staggering amount since at least 2010; numbers that exploded under the Liberal government in 2015. This isn't the controlled, sustainable immigration that Canada historically knew – it’s floodgates wide open. Open work permits (i.e. no LMIA) mean these workers can go anywhere, to any job, because there’s nothing tying them to a specific employer or proven labour shortage. The results of this flood is predictable chaos. Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem called for policy changes in October 2025 to address a lowering standard of living, explaining that productivity growth has been weak, and without structural improvements (which monetary policy cannot directly fix), incomes will end up lower than they otherwise could have been. Canada's temporary resident population ballooned to millions, driving the housing crisis into overdrive, making rent skyrocket, leaving young families priced out and youth not getting entry level jobs. Hospitals are overwhelmed, schools are strained, and federal policy implications from this are being continually downloaded onto provinces and municipalities without adequate resources to absorb the culture shock. Youth unemployment climbs as employers flood the market with cheaper temporary labour. Public polling shows most Canadians now see temporary foreign worker programs – and by extension this unchecked IMP surge – as hammering housing affordability and job prospects for Canadian kids. Yet the Liberals kept the taps on full blast for years, prioritizing 'broader economic benefits' over Canadian workers and communities. This is the same government that lectured us about 'building back better' while importing the scale of a small city every few months without building the infrastructure to match. It's reckless, unsustainable, and it’s hitting everyday Canadians the hardest, especially in our biggest cities and provinces like Ontario that are disproportionately expected to absorb this influx. While the TFWP gets most of the blame and the press, the IMP is the silent predator. It’s bigger, faster, and far less accountable. The Liberals opened these floodgates, and now we're all paying the price with a generation of young Canadians shut out of the housing and job markets their parents took for granted. Elbows up, Canada.
