Here's an interesting article from the U.S. census bureau, which
likely
applies to Canada as well:
"The U.S. Census Bureau reported today that 74 percent of those
who have
a bachelor's degree in science, technology, engineering and math —
commonly referred to as STEM — are not employed in STEM occupations."

This is not surprising because according to payscale.com
<http://payscale.com> the average
Indian programmer makes just $8,300 cdn for the entire year. IBM now
has more employees in India than it does in America.

Industry is making a concerted effort to perpetuate the skills
shortage
myth so that they can beguile politicians and persuade them to
open the
floodgates of immigration. This has the effect of saturating the
market
and lowering wages.
And they have succeeded:

Note that a letter carrier makes more money.
