Canada foreign worker program a ‘breeding ground’ for slavery – UN expert

RT: Canada’s temporary foreign worker program, under which up to 60,000 people arrive in the country each year, is leading to modern forms of slavery, a United Nations expert has warned. 

Following a two-week fact-finding visit to Canada, UN special rapporteur for contemporary forms of slavery, Tomoya Obokata, said on Wednesday that he was “deeply disturbed by the accounts of exploitation and abuse” he was informed of by migrant workers.

“Employee-specific work permit regimes, including certain Temporary Foreign Worker Programs (TFWPs), make migrant workers vulnerable to contemporary forms of slavery, as they cannot report abuses without fear of deportation,” Obokata said in a statement posted to the UN Human Rights office website.

The controversial program sees between 50,000 to 60,000 foreign laborers arrive in Canada each year, but has for several years faced accusations of systemic exploitation. Foreign workers across various sectors, including agriculture and meat processing, have complained of sub-par conditions, as well as having only limited recourse to address instances of abuse. MORE

  1. I’ve been posting for over a decade that “progressivism” is Marxism is Satanism and the ultimate goal of all three is to separate as many innocent souls from God for all eternity as possible, in the mean time they are totally invested in increasing innocent human suffering, misery and death. That right there is the reason the progressive movement exists in the first place. There really is no other viable explanation and it survives the closest of close scrutiny.

  4. Canada’s temporary foreign worker program…is leading to modern forms of slavery, a United Nations expert has warned.

    That’s a highly reliable source. Nobody’s an expert on slavery like a United Nations expert on slavery. Especially a U.N. expert with a name like Tomoya Obokata.

    Yep, I’m using stereotypes. Bite me.

  5. How they do it in Brampton Ontario:

    they pay the workers the normal Hourly wage. (legal)

    they just force them to Book 7.5 hrs & work 10 to 12 hrs.

    I see it all the time.
