The trend isn't confined to the Bow Valley or even to Alberta. The federal government has temporarily eased limits on how many temporary foreign workers a business can hire in low-wage positions, and employers across Canada have increasingly made use of the program.

I hate that companies use the option of paying temp foreign workers low wages instead of gov'ts raising minimum wages across the board. It all just seems so damn dystopian. :(
