In a recent tweet, border scholar Harsha Walia described Bill C-12 as “absolutely horrific,” warning that it could become “the country’s largest machinery of deportation.” As the bill moves from the Senate to the House of Commons, concerns about its potential impact are growing.
In this episode, Local 514 host Kalden Dhatsenpa speaks with Mostafa Henaway of the Immigrant Workers Centre in Montreal to unpack what’s at stake with Bill C12. A leading organizer and expert on migrant labour in Canada, Mostafa brings critical insight into the broader implications of the bill.
Mostafa and Kalden discuss the dangers posed by Bill C-12, the rise of anti-immigrant sentiment, and how some companies in Montreal are exploiting migrant workers who are increasingly pushed into precarity. These stories of exploited migrant workers might become more common if the bill receives royal assent.
