Yes, but if you facilitate access to foreign workers, let's say with a "temporary foreign worker program", like it is the case in Canada, companies will go after them first because they are cheap labor and are easy to abuse. Meanwhile, there are new graduates who struggle to find jobs.
It does not help canadians and it does not help foreigners. Sure, we can always blame the companies, but the government also has it's part of responsibility by enabling this.
Okey let's take a look what that program is, citation from Wikipedia :
It looks to me that the shortage was the reason why program was initiated. So from the information I have, it looks to me you have it backward.
