Migrante Canada
The whole world today celebrates International Migrants Day. On December 18, 1990, the United Nations General Assembly signed and adopted the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families.
Canada, an active recruiter of migrant workers, has never signed this covenant. As of 2009, there were over 280,000 foreign workers in Canada. Still, the current conservative government aims to recruit more migrant workers who will have no chance of getting permanent residence status and will have minimal to no protection at all. Next to India, the Philippines is the third largest source country of migrants coming to Canada. From 2007 to 2009 alone, almost 50,000 foreign workers from the Philippines entered Canada via the Temporary Foreign Worker Program.
