    The post you responded to was seven years old and it's definitely inaccurate to state that there's loads of trade work in Canada. The energy sector has been absolutely destroyed so the chances of being hired as a temporary foreign worker on a visa are almost non-existent.

    We're all in this psy-op together.🤨
