Say we're not getting superior services. That could mean that the others are making even less than they should.

I find it interesting that you say you believe in capitalism. You're comparing labour across different nations. Yet, you're staunchly opposed to the free movement of labourers between nations. That's not free-market capitalism. You believe in some other form of tightly regulated capitalism that benefits the employers, whom operate internationally yet doesn't allow the employees to operate internationally. It's an odd set of contradictory values, imo.

Untrue. First, I believe in Capitalism but not unrestrained Capitalism. Unrestrained Capitalism would be a nightmare. And since I'm strongly opposed to the TFWs(except farm workers) which benefit employers at the expense of workers, and also against the immigration of low-skilled people - which also benefits employers at the expensive lower skilled Canadian workers I don't see where there's a contradiction in my position. I think the market should control wages in both cases. If you can't find enough baristas or fish factory workers at what you're paying, then pay more. That goes hand in hand with us not paying more for cops, teachers, firefighters, nurses, bus drivers, etc., than we need to.
