'You Shall Not Wrong or Oppress the Stranger':

Caring for Migrant Workers in Canada

 

Canada relies heavily on temporary, migrants to work in a host of challenging jobs. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the vulnerability they often face on the job in agriculture, long term care, and other sectors.

 

The Torah calls on us – 36 different times, more than any other obligation! – to care for the stranger in our midst. Join a ZOOM panel of DN experts for a conversation about fairness for migrant workers in Canada.

 

Panelists:

Naomi Alboim: Canadian Immigration Policy

Kaile Glick: Community Agriculture

Marianne Levitsky: Occupational Health & Safety

David McKee: Labour Law

Myer Siemiatycki: Moderator
