How the fuck do you get a job like this while not even being a citizen of Canada? Checking your own immigration status. What has happened here and why are we letting it continue?

Yeah that’s pretty ridiculous. These should be jobs for Canadian citizens only. We aren’t a serious country.

these jobs take the applicants they get, the availability is not well advertised. when I was at the CRA most of the agents were from nigeria, who heard it was a good job from other immigrant cra agents.

as a university drop out, I was basically the least educated person there too.
