PM Mark Carney's Canada

[Westey]

Wondering how many of these trade "deals" will materialize to economic growth, and if any, how long will it take...

The fact that these are not actual trade deals, they are MOU's, and the fact that since Carney become PM, the April thru December GDP growth was 0% in Canada vs. 3.2% in USA, I'd think you have to wait a long time until Canada will see improvement.

The TFW program should never be used or seen as a track to PR. Come to Canada, pick our fruit, get paid, go home, and we’ll see you next year. That system worked fine. And TFW who wants to become a PR should have to apply from their home country.
