Toronto, ON - September 17, 2012 — UFCW Canada, Canada's leading union and long-time advocate for migrant workers' rights, endorses the recommendations and agrees with the findings of a new report from the Metcalf Foundation that lays out how current government policy is inadequate in preventing the exploitation and human rights violations of migrant workers in Canada.
A new group of workers are the newest members of the UFCW Canada family after recently voting to join Local 1518. The new members work for Tojalomi Enterprises Ltd., a retail food store, gas station, and cafe located in Fort Fraser, B.C. In a vote conducted on September 10th, the workers proudly said “Yes!” to UFCW Canada.
