If it's health care workers they're scouting, bring it on. My wife is an RN and she just had to work a 19-hour shift due to chronic short staffing colliding head-on with a spike in ER activity. They're letting her have 8 hours off between shifts, then back at it today. So scouting foreign workers might be bad in some sectors, but there are still sectors that desperately need workers, and health care is definitely one such.
Of course, government intelligence being what it is, it doesn't sound like health care is one of the job sectors they're targeting, so that makes it doubly stupid. Bring in more construction workers to do nothing, but who needs more doctors and nurses. Sheesh.
