Re: "Foreign labour is critical to farm production in both countries, where domestic workers shun the hard physical labour and low pay."(Financial Post, April 6)

Surely that tells us something. I'm 76 years old, and this season as usual I'm going to plant, cultivate, and harvest a labour-intensive, two-acre market garden by myself. But I learned how to work many years ago as a boy living, and working, on a farm.

I would be only too happy to teach some seasonal, out-of-work, government-subsidized, university or high school student how it's done. I bet there's a lot of them would jump at such a chance. Just saying.
