As a result a worker from Iran is out $25,000 to a shady immigration consultant, and he still has no job.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3833524\" data-originallang=\"en\">Is this what the minister considers due diligence? How are the minister's paperwork-only inspections going to catch this kind of violation the next time?</p>",

R\u00e9sultat? Un travailleur iranien a perdu 25 000 $ aux mains d'un consultant en immigration v\u00e9reux, et il n'a toujours pas d'emploi.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3833524\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Le ministre estime-t-il que les pr\u00e9cautions n\u00e9cessaires ont \u00e9t\u00e9 prises? Comment les enqu\u00eates du ministre, men\u00e9es uniquement sur papier, pourront-elles d\u00e9celer pareille violation \u00e0 l'avenir?</p>"
