November 24 Rally to Stop Mass Deportations of Migrant Student Workers
Organized by Migrant Workers Alliance for Change
Facebook
Tens of thousands of migrant student workers in low-wage jobs
are facing deportation because of impossible immigration requirements.
Millions of people lost work and wages during COVID-19, but for migrant
student workers who are on time-restricted work permits, losing work
means they cannot fulfill requirements to apply for permanent
residency. Their work permits are non-renewable and time is running
out. Unless Prime Minister Trudeau and Immigration Minister Marco
Mendicino act quickly, thousands will be forced to leave Canada by the
end of this year or become undocumented.
Migrants should not be punished for the pandemic! Ensure fair
immigration rules to stop the deportation of thousands. Make work
permits renewable and value all work!
