Canada has tightened up on migration of Americans recently particuarly those who have little to offer their country too.
When you're dealing americans it has become a necessity to introduce "a character test" or tighten up more.

There is still a character test which can and has tripped up New Zealanders attempting to enter, now that sharing of criminal history between the two countries is undertaken, plus the additional eligibility restrictions. There is also no path of citizenship under this visa (similar to what was applicable to NAFTA).
As I mentioned there are similarities, but they are not the same. I was tempted to cite WHP visas given their open employer and temporary status, but given other restrictions I am not sure they form an appropriate comparison.
Remember too that the SCV subsection 444 visa with Australia, like NAFTA, was also borne from commercial trade with Australia under CER (although the current SCV incarnation of the right to work did not exist until the mid 1990's) where New Zealanders were classified as exempt non-citizens.
I am not sure what the current USMCA terms are for employment, but are probably much more restrictive and overall a dogs breakfast.
If he wished to commit an atrocity in Australia as a citizen or NZ as a tourist, he would no doubt have been able to gain the resources to do so through a network of people in each respective country with similar ideals. IMO it would be overkill to remove the ability for New Zealanders and Australians to work in each other's country based on this specific incident, when other methods of filtering such people could be undertaken.
There is an undercurrent to removing the right to work, particularly for New Zealanders in Australia. It was not a hot topic when I worked in Australia full time, but it has now gained some momentum.

$100,000 per child - that’s how clueless Cindy is about lifting children out of poverty.
To be expected from a woman whose only claim to business experience is working in a greasy fish & chips shop.
A budget of global proportions.
