New Angus Reid Institute data reveal that while 52% of Canadians view the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) negatively, a majority believe the workers themselves are unfairly blamed for economic problems. The survey finds 55% think Canada accepts too many TFWs, with most respondents citing negative impacts on housing, youth employment, and the labour market. Support for providing TFWs a pathway to citizenship has declined from 36% to 30% over the past year, indicating growing resistance despite recognition that government policies, not workers, deserve scrutiny.
