Add on a path to citizenship + protections, tfw program has a history of abuse, https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/prince-edward-island/pei-temporary-foreign-workers-open-permit-part-one-1.6534796 https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/temporary-foreign-workers-vulnerability-noted-in-sexual-harassment-case-1.3089970 https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/headlines/who-s-looking-out-for-tim-hortons-temporary-foreign-workers-1.1282019

These go back to 2012 and these are just some cherry picked headlines, entire program needs to be dismantled, or at least fundamentally changed. We've known about these issues for years, there's no excuse.
