Hey guys
I'm in a tough spot.. lost my job last week.. Anyway to make a few bucks for some food tonight?
First water colour portrait for my GF’s birthday ft. her two favourite things…
Favourite things: Lorelei (our canine muse) and Guerrero Jr. from the Toronto Blue Jays. My muse is very wiggly, so multiple reference photos needed to be used.
Water colour + pencil + cheap paint brushes. *Later added “Daaaa Yankee Lose!” at the top (reference from last year’s play offs).
A Pharmacy in Toronto, ON has requested a LMIA to fill a Pharmacy Assistant position that they say they can't fill with a Canadian or PR. The wage offered is $36.00 per hour.
The position requires a secondary school diploma and 1-2 years of experience. The job duties are:
Ensure the information on prescriptions is accurate
Enter client information in databases
Help pharmacists
Maintain inventories of medications and pharmaceutical products
Maintain prescription records
Compound, package and label pharmaceutical products
Bill third party insurers
Compound oral solutions, ointments and creams
Maintain supplies
​
The median wage for a Pharmacy Assistant in the Toronto Area is $19.50 per hour. Coincidentally the offered wage of $36.00 per hour is the exact wage needed to qualify for a LMIA as there is an active refusal to process in Toronto for any LMIA paid $35.99 or lower.
​
I attempted to find the LMIA history for this business but I was unable to. They are either a first time filer or they bested me.
​
**Disclaimer** I am not accusing this business of wrong doing. I am posting an active job posting for the purposes of documenting active job postings that are utilizing the program.
