I agree with the law - these are not Canadians and they're taking Canadian jobs. There is a provision to assist in some ways by the 20 hrs per week but if a student needs $17,000 to pay for school, they are not going to get this amount plus what it takes to live. Who are we trying to kid. This is just another way to fill the truck seats with people who should not be working.
I suggest that we enforce this law more fully.
