To be fair, many of the jobs are not low wages - salaries paid are in the same bracket as local Canadians with the same skills in my space. A mid-level, non manager consultant in my group is getting 6 figures right now. I imagine though, like you said, other jobs might be? Though even this I'm a bit doubtful of. Your point about these people being willing to work jobs we won't is true though but that's more a reflection of our population being a bit entitled when it comes to this. The possible wage disparity really isn't surprising to me though - our government condemns many things of other countries but quietly do some of it ourselves.
