While migrant farm workers value the opportunity to come to Canada and earn more than they can in their home countries there are serious issues related to working conditions and human rights. Inter Pares and J4MW will build on the workshop in the last assembly to discuss efforts in Canada to work for changes in policies and legislation affecting migrant workers. Since such laws are a provincial responsibility it is important to share information and strategies from groups working at this level. Our aim is to raise awareness with a broader section of the food movement and explore collaboration.
