Activist group blasts Canada for abandoning farm workers
Seasonal workers in Canada who want to go home. - CTV News, Canada
A Canadian activist group, Justice for Migrant Workers, is calling on the Canadian government to help seasonal workers return to TT.
A group member, Chris Ramsaroop, in a phone interview with Sunday Newsday, said there were almost 280 workers enduring the harsh winter and living conditions.
He said it was disturbing that the Canadian government failed to intervene, given the importance of the migrant workers to Canada s agricultural sector.
“The Canadian government is not doing enough to repatriate the workers to TT. These workers want to go home and back to their families.
