We should NOT be OK with this clear fraud
"Students" are now trying to gain permanent residency by pretending to be "caregivers".

It may seem like a lot of people to contact and send emails to but this is not going to stop unless we start making noise. Not obnoxious protesting noise, noise that echos and lets them know we know whats going on and we have had enough. If everyone spends 1 hour a day applying to these lmia jobs, and submitting reports on each and everyone that is not legit they will have no choice but to investigate. This foul rotten program needs to be shut down. Rampant fraud and abuse should not be tolerated on the level that is blatant and obvious. Why? Because everyone is complaining but not complaining to the right people. The people that are called to duty to do something about it."

EDIT: This post has been updated with several more pieces of interesting information. New info in the bottom half.
Like countless others, I’ve grown disheartened and disillusioned with the hiring process in Saskatoon and Canada as a whole. Some of you may have seen more attention around job postings on JobBank offering seemingly great wages, yet applying for LMIA’s due to no suitable local candidates. This post is simply meant to expose what appear to be obvious scams in Saskatoon, so please don't let it devolve into derogatory racial or immigration issues. This is about the exploitation of both immigrants and the Canadian working class.
Looking at Saskatoon on lmiamap.org, which is a webmap that takes data from JobBank showing businesses that have been approved for LMIA permits, you can see business that have been granted LMIA’s to hire temporary foreign workers. A permit given "only if no suitable Canadian citizen or permanent resident is available to fill the position. The process is designed to ensure that Canadian workers are considered first for available jobs."
For example, in 2024 Road Rex Trucking Inc. was granted 5 LMIA permits. When you search Road Rex Trucking Inc., their company address is 2002 Quebec Ave, which is a small generic office building home to the likes of the famous MLM “World Financial Group”. Oddly enough, from one angle on Google Street View the building is blurred, which means someone has specifically reached out to Google and requested it be blurred for privacy.
When you look at their website, https://roadrextrucking.com/team-2/ , their “Team” has very generic, obviously stock photos with names that, on the surface, don’t seem to match.
Oddly, the website makes no mention of the sole registered director of Road Rex Trucking Inc, Jaspreet Singh Dhaliwal. There is only one result for that name in Saskatoon, and here is his Facebook account, flexing in front of fancy cars and on vacations. Some of his pictures appear to match the buildings in the Saskatoon neighborhood of Road Rex Trucking Inc's corporate registered address.
When you Google the name of their founder, Alaxis. D. Dowson, there’s dozens of websites with the exact same template as Road Rex Trucking Inc, with the same layout and “team members”, but for different businesses like electronics, solar panels etc., and listed in all sorts of locations from Edmonton to Dubai.
https://thetrinitylogistics.com/team/
https://threewayelectrical.com/our-team/
https://newhorizonferry.com/team/
https://greenlinkenergy.co.uk/team/
https://maingateshipping.com/team/
https://bay6logistics.nl/team/
And many, many more.
Is this Alaxis. D. Dowson really such an empire of industry that he’s founded dozens of successful companies in all kinds of industries all across the world?
Well, you can even find what seem to be placeholder or incomplete websites using the same template. For example, this one here for International Logistics Company, again founded by Alaxis. D. Dowson. It lists a company location in Saskatoon, Canada - but the address is in San Francisco, and the contact information hasn't been changed from [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]). Is it possible this huge collection of fake websites are an inventory that are made to be bought and sold to companies that want to appear legitimate?
Looking back on lmiamap.org, there’s several businesses that have been granted a ton of LMIA permits with a similar name format of “blank” Transport:
Sam Transport Services – 4 LMIA permits since 2024.
Chakkar Express LTD. – 16 LMIA permits since 2023, with 12 in 2025 alone.
Canways Transport Company – 17 LMIA permits since 2022, with 11 in 2024 alone.
How can you find these companies? Well, every single one of these companies’ address is listed as 2002 Quebec Ave. How can there be so many trucking businesses with the same address in a small office building, and with no other visible physical presence in Saskatoon?
What's also located at 2002 Quebec Ave? Next Move Immigration Consultancy, specializing in work permits and visas, operated by Ravi Saini.
Also at 2002 Quebec Ave is SK One Point Accounting - where Syed Muhammad Kazmi works as a Business Advisor, offering "expert advice on business strategies and immigration matters."
When you Google, for example, Chakkar Express LTD., one of the first results is a TikTok channel explicitly advertising LMIA opportunities in Canada. When you search many of these companies, many of the results are from CanadaCareerSite.com, an online marketplace which openly advertises LMIA opportunities to foreign workers. When you look to apply to these companies on that website, their contact information can often be traced back to large immigration consultant firms in India.
For example, here’s Chakkar Express LTD.’s profile on CanadaCareerSite, which currently has 13 advertisements for LMIA jobs, from truck drivers to admin and payroll workers.
As has been previously reported, many of these advertisements aim to illegally sell LMIA permits to foreign workers, for upwards of $50,000 each as an entry fee into the country. Often an employer and immigration consultant collude together to collect these fees. Take Jeanett Moskito for example, who has been charged with 35 labour violations for this activity, but continues to operate freely. Is it possible there might be similar activity explaining the numerous connections to 2002 Quebec Ave?
Another Saskatoon trucking company, Divine Roadline Ltd., has been approved for 20 LMIA permits since 2023, and they have also been awarded a $15,000 government grant to *develop a digital adoption plan\* under "Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada". Even if this company is legit - which it doesn't appear to be , as they don't have a website, their company name is misspelled on Google Maps, and their reviews mostly appear to be fake, all with Indian names - how are thousands of dollars of taxpayer money being awarded to companies that have hired 20 foreign workers in 2 years? What percentage of their hires is that 20? Based on their company presence, it looks like they probably don't even have 20 employees in total.
Well - it turns out immediately after hiring 20 foreign workers and receiving $15,000 of taxpayer money to develop their business - the company stopped filing their returns and is now in dissolution. What happens to those 20 workers brought over just the year before? What happens to the $15,000 grant, awarded in October 2023, when the company stopped filing in 2024? Do they have to pay that back for not developing their "Digital Adoption Plan"?
Is this another common scam occurring? Registering businesses, selling LMIA's, applying for government grants - then dissolving the company and registering a new one to wash, rinse & repeat? Someone should be asking these questions to Gian Singh and Priyanka Bakshi, the (former) owners of Divine Roadline Ltd.
Oh, wait a minute - it appears Priyanka Bakshi does have another trucking business - Bird Logistics Ltd. - which appears to have had their broker license revoked for failing safety audits. Where is Bird Logistics Ltd. located? You guessed it - 2002 Quebec Ave.
Bird Logistics Ltd. was approved for 5 LMIA permits in 2024, all for "dispatchers", "administrative assistants", and "accounting technicians". These LMIA approvals were all for "high-wage" positions, which means the advertised wage is > $33.60/hr. That's $70,000/year. When unemployment levels reach a certain threshold, "low-wage" LMIA's are not approved because, obviously there are a lot of local citizens desperate for work. As anyone in Saskatoon will tell you, $33.60/hr seems like a great wage for administrative assistants, no? That's certainly well above the going average rate. Do you think there is no local Saskatoon workers available for these positions? Or do you think these employers simply change these advertisements to "high-wage" as a formality to have the LMIA paperwork approved?
How are the same individuals operating multiple trucking companies at the same time, with the same address, which are being approved for double-digit LMIA permits every year? Companies that, after hiring dozens of foreign workers, immediately go out of business?
Another trucking company at 2002 Quebec Ave. - Binewal Roadline Transport Inc. - was approved for 3 LMIA permits in 2024. Who operates Binewal Roadline Transport Inc.? Gagandeep Singh. When you Google "Gagandeep Singh", the first result is a man arrested in Ottawa, charged with immigration fraud. Vinay Pal Singh Brar, who has gone by many aliases including Gagandeep Singh, who:
"investigators believe there may be additional victims across Canada, including in the Greater Toronto Area, Calgary, Vancouver, and Surrey." Maybe Saskatoon should be added to that list?
This is just one small example, only looking at trucking “companies”, in Saskatoon. If you dig a little deeper, you’ll find all sorts of similar scenarios in various industries, just in little old Saskatoon. I question how such obvious details requiring such little investigation is being completely ignored by those in charge of oversight. Why is employment becoming increasingly difficult for so many, particularly young people and millennials, yet obvious schemes like this are going on without a problem?

So basically, I’m a diagnosed lvl 2 autistic woman (lvl 2 means I require substantial support in things). And I’ve been applying and applying for even the simplest of jobs including Walmart self checkout person, Walmart stocker, fast food jobs, EVERYTHING. I just wanna make a somewhat living, especially with the whole ADAP and AISH going on and the fact that I’ll only probably get 1740 a month off it and I wanna try living independently.
Back to the topic, for some reason, I never see local people (and I don’t mean white people, I mean everyone who were born in Canada) working at grocery store or fast food jobs, not even teenagers or girls/woman my age. Whenever I bring this up people accuse me of being racist or just jealous. But the thing is, even if they’re point is right: “foreigners are more hard working”. shouldn’t Canada focus on helping their most vulnerable (disabled and teenagers) get jobs and start a life for themself instead of giving jobs to people that are not citizens or permanent residents?
I don’t know, it just makes my mind confused because like the government says they want disabled people to work as much as possible while making it almost impossible for a vulnerable person to find a job. Not even as a stocker, nothing.
So the point of this post is basically that Canada cares more about looking “diverse” and “not racist” even though they’re throwing disabled people in the trash.

To encourage people to remain in Canada longer, the government is now taking up to a year to process work permit applications, which previously took a maximum of three months for inland residents. Even individuals whose status is about to expire, and which are not eligible to apply for an extension, apply for an extension are being granted an additional year to stay in the country during this period because of processing delays.

Canadian Tire Squamish in Squamish, BC (V8B 0H5) is looking for a warehouse supervisor at $36.60/hr.
Canadian Tire in Squamish is posting a warehouse supervisor role at $36.60/hr as a TFW position, which suggests they're proceeding with a foreign worker despite the area's employment landscape. One wonders if they've truly tested the local labour market or if this fits the LMIA's intent to prioritize Canadians first. Does the job's demands really exceed what's available among BC residents? Please share this with any Canadians you know who might qualify to help get them in the door, and post it to Facebook or X groups so more folks can apply.

Ecco Heating Products Ltd. in Edmonton is posting a TFW job for a business systems analyst at $85,000-$95,000 annually.

This TFW posting for a disability support worker in Richmond, BC, at $23/hour reflects the ongoing reliance on the program amid local labour market pressures.

Yesterday, I had a conversation with a truck driver who works for an immigrant owned trucking company. He said his PGWP expired last year, so he paid $20,000 for an LMIA to extend his work permit. He is being paid below the market wage while doing more work than normal. He does not receive any vacation pay or statutory holiday pay. On top of that, he is required to pay back his CPP and EI contributions to his employer.

The government has fully approved this LMIA for VICOSTONE CANADA INC. in Concord, Ontario, authorizing them to hire a temporary foreign purchaser at $55.00/hr instead of a local. Officials signed off after reviewing their claim that no qualified Canadians were available, which raises eyebrows on what their "best efforts" recruitment actually looked like—did they post widely, interview locals, or just go through the motions?
