Unionized trade jobs is where the money is. Don't believe the "trades are desperate" BS. Companies are desperate for more foreign workers they can abuse and pay lower wages. As long as goverment allows immigrants to fill the “void” nothing will change. Why train someone that will eventually...

Santander is a dead weight. The jays went nearly the entire season without Santander in the lineup because of a bad shoulder! Now another season with the same issue. But Jays accomplished plenty without Santander last year. Hopefully Bieber isn't out too long. That's the biggest worry...
