Better bring in some TFWs for those high skill Tim Hortons jobs.

We just simply couldn't find anyone local in the GTA with the skillset to pour coffee, we need the government to subsidize a worker for us.

I'm not wholly against TFWs, there are definitely situations where they make sense. However there is zero reason why fast food and restaurants brought in 8,000 TFWs in 2023.
