For decades migrant workers in Canada have been denied the most basic freedoms. The freedom to change their job, the freedom to visit with their family, the freedom to stay with their loved ones. Now, the Federal Government is carrying a historic review of the program (May 11 – June 15) and we need to ensure that migrant workers get mobility, voice and equality.

Together, we will call for:

– Mobility: Migrant workers should not be forced to work for a single employer
– Voice: Migrant workers should get a say. It’s time to undo the harm done by the previous government.
– Equality: Let’s build a robust permanent immigration system where migrant workers gets equal treatment
