There's 250,000 foreign workers added last year, of which, about 85,000 low wage stream and 100,000 in agriculture.

In total there are currently 2,800,000 non-canadian permit holders in Canada: 1.3m temporary workers, 1m temporary international students (where as many as half are attending dog #### institutions and are really just low wage workers working 25 hours per week), and 0.4m asylum seekers. That's up about 1m in two years...
