Former chief economist for TD Bank Financial Group, now visiting scholar in Global Public Policy at Queen’s University, Don Drummond gave the keynote address on the second day of the 2015 HIO Employer Summit. In this video, Drummond argues that immigration is an essential but incomplete strategy for maintaining labour force growth in Canada. Drummond calls upon employers to do what they can to improve employment prospects for immigrants, including rethinking their hiring practices and examining their preconceived notions of the best candidate for the job.
