Now the money should at least stay in Canada.
I also used to be 100% in the 'pay more and you'll find help camp', but the least couple months I gotta say, I'm beginning to think that people literally don't want to work anymore. I know of lots trades positions with GOOD companies, and they can't fill them. Good pay, benefits, training opportunities....basically everything one would want to start a good career. Can't find anyone to fill the positions. Crazy times.

If people didn't want to work anymore than it would show in the employment rate of ~61.5%, which is right in line with the past 5 years. Looks to be more work than jobs going around. Seems calling people lazy, is a lazy way to classify the mismatch between offering competitive enough wages/benefits to entice more people into the workforce.
