The original purpose of the TFW program was for roles with specialized expertise where the company couldn't find qualified people who are already citizens or PRs.

And I'm absolutely fine with that.

Then over the years it expanded to include basically any job that nobody else wanted to work, due to (mostly) the company not being willing to offer fair wages, full time shifts or decent working conditions.

And that's where most of the problems happened.
