Canada s migrant farmworkers remain at risk a year into pandemic | WSAU News/Talk 550 AM · 99 9 FM

By Syndicated Content By Anna Mehler Paperny TORONTO (Reuters) - Pedro, a Mexican migrant worker, knew he had to leave the Ontario cannabis operation where he worked when so many of his coworkers caught COVID-19 that his employer began to house them in a 16-person bunk house alongside the uninfected. Pedro moved in with friends in the nearby farming town of Leamington, Ontario, at the end of October.
