  • Family, Human Rights, and Worker Invisibility in Seasonal Mexican Farm Worker Agricultural Migrations to Canada, 1974–Present1
    Labours of Love: Family, Human Rights, and Worker Invisibility in Seasonal Mexican Farm Worker Agricultural Migrations to Canada, 1974–Present1 Naomi Alisa Calnitsky “Behind every fruit and vegetable for sale in the supermarket lies an unknown world of toil and skill.”2 “I was harvesting squash in the field near my village one day, when my patrón came and said, ‘Irena, you should go to Canada. There’s now a program there for women.’ And I said, ‘How can I go to Canada, if I haven’t even been to Mexico City?’”3 Introduction The Canadian Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program (SAWP) originated in an “off- shore program” initiated by the Canadian government in 1966, with the goal of co- ordinating a seasonal Caribbean labour supply for the province of Ontario. The program grew in significance from the mid-1970s, after being extended to Mexico in 1974. The SAWP’s emergence in the latter half of the twentieth century can be read as part of a longer history of managed agricultural migration on the North American continent. In the United States, a bilaterally-coordinated labour scheme was introduced on a large scale with the Mexican Farm Labour Program (MFLP)— later known as the Bracero Program—which was initiated in 1942 and ended by the Kennedy Administration in 1964. This article focuses on a particular strand of Canadian SAWP history to consider how migrant workers were portrayed in the archive, and unpacks early journalistic interviews with Mexican farm workers in Manitoba, which recorded the SAWP’s emergence in its early phases. It brings modern-day migrant voices into conversation with an existing academic literature that has, for the most part, high- lighted the exploitation inherent to a program in which workers were increasingly rendered invisible and marginal, especially with respect to their full and equal par- ticipation in the Canadian economy.

    Rural Ontario Medical Program 2015-2016 Community Rotation Guidebook Printed September 2015 The information in this guide is accurate at the time of printing and is subject to change. Current information can be found on the ROMP website. If there is a discrepancy between the information provided in this book and the information on the ROMP website, the website prevails. Before making decisions about rotations, please consult our knowledgeable staff. Committed, inspired physicians and dedicated communities are the essentials that have helped the Rural Ontario Medical Program (ROMP) grow since its inception in 1988. Partnering with communities and medical schools, ROMP has evolved and developed with the changing needs of rural and regional placements. Originally ROMP placed 40 rotations annually. Today that number has grown to over 1500 as community-based clinical rotations have thrived and are growing in all regions in the province of Ontario. Encouraging medical students and residents to participate in core and elective rotations outside the urban academic centre in rural and regional communities has helped alleviate some of the doctor distribution issues in Canada. Almost half (47.5%) of doctors who do their under/postgraduate rotations in rural and regional communities choose to stay in an under serviced region. This number jumps to 70% - 85% for rotations that are one to two years in length. Whether in beautiful Orillia on beautiful lake Simcoe or Tobermory with its world-class sunken boat diving and hyperbaric facility to Trent Hills with the historic Trent-Severn Canal system, ROMP has a community suited for everyone. Experience one of the many communities in Ontario by participating in a rural or regional rotation.
