Join us for a special learning opportunity for classes and groups
As you may know, many sectors of Canada’s economy, such as agriculture, hospitality, construction, and care-giving, rely heavily on the labour of migrants. For many years, Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) and the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP) has brought migrants to come to Canada to fulfill our labour shortages in these sectors. Although the work and the demand for this work is permanent, the workers are given only temporary migration status within strict limits, making them targets for exploitation and abuse.
Watch this short video for a taste of what our work will bring.
Mixed Company Theatre: Toronto’s Theatre for Social Change, and the Collaborative Network to End Exploitation are working on a collaboration that will share the stories of these workers, with interactive audience participation. Our hope is to empower action for policy change that will make so-called Canada a more fair and equitable place for all.
Be the first to find out more about this collaboration and the learning opportunities it brings. The zoom session will include sample interactive activities, so be ready to participate!
