Most of the people we bring in are, like, doctors, aren't they? Education is very favoured in the application process, including kinds that they'll never be able to actually use here (I think I mentioned executives).

So yeah, bring in plumbers, and get them certified to Canadian standards. Zoning needs to die too, and some cities are working on it. Apparently the high interest rates are really biting right now as well.
