Immigration works for how many generations though? You will be eventually facing the same issues unless you expect India, China, etc to just export their most talented and brightest workers for the benefit of Canada, and then sterilized them so they don't have children to interfere with their work.

I don't really understand how the OP got saddled with this suddenly though. Processes should be in place to ensure a smooth transition of any work, and that nothing is left incomplete. Ideally the worker going on leave, and the company knew this well in advance. The worker should have bee wrapping up any unfinished work.
