Résumé

Taking 1974 as a point of departure for the study of circular farm labour migration
between Mexico and Canada, the study revisits questions surrounding Canadian views
of what constitutes the ideal or injurious migrant worker, to ask critical questions about
how managed farm labour migration schemes evolved in Canadian history.It explores
the historical precedents of seasonal farm labour in Canada through the lens of the
interior or the personal on the one hand, through an oral history approach, and the
external or the structural on the other.
