Food industry requests emergency access to temporary foreign workers amid labour woes

The food and beverage manufacturing sector has asked Ottawa to increase the cap on temporary foreign workers it currently operates under.

It wants the rules changed to allow for 30 per cent of an employer's workforce to be made up of TFWs, instead of the currently levels of 10 to 20 per cent.
