I advertised recently on the Archives List for an intern and received
responses from two Canadian students. I called the Immigration and
Naturalization to find out what we would have to do to hire a Canadian.
I was told there were lots of forms and red tape, and I would have to
convince the Labor Board that there were no qualified applicants from
the U.S. Apparently you have to be something like a famous medical
researcher or a professional athlete to cross borders.
Adriana has a point, actually. Someone within the country would
probably have a better knowledge and experience, and we don't want to
contribute to the country's unemployment.
