Migrants, including undocumented individuals, students, and refugees, marched in cities across Canada to demand permanent residency for all before the federal parliament reconvenes. In Toronto, protesters marched downtown, causing traffic delays. They call for an uncapped program to grant permanent residence to all migrants and illegal immigrants. This protest follows criticism from a UN expert who referred to Canada’s temporary foreign worker program as a form of slavery. The UN Special Rapporteur on Modern Forms of Slavery has urged the government to provide a longer-term or permanent residency pathway for all temporary foreign workers.
