  • Consideration for Supports in Windsor-Essex Agri-Community
    January 19, 2021 Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada Office of the Prime Minister 80 Wellington Street Ottawa, ON K1A 0A2 [email protected] Doug Ford, Premier of the Province of Ontario Assembly of Ontario, Office of the Premier Legislative Building, Queen’s Park – Room 281 Toronto, Ontario, M7A 1A1 [email protected] Re: Consideration for supports in Windsor-Essex Agri-Community At the urging of local health care leaders and municipal officials in Windsor and Essex County, representatives of all three levels of government have been meeting to address a looming crisis. As reported by Essex-Windsor EMS and hospital officials, our local healthcare capacity in Windsor and Leamington hospitals is approaching its limits, with over 20% of the pressures coming from the agricultural sector. As anecdotal evidence, patients are being transferred to Windsor Regional Hospital, Chatham-Kent Health Alliance, Blue water Health Systems (Sarnia) and London Health Sciences Centre, and a temporary morgue has been put in place in Windsor. Agriculture is a fundamental component of our local economy and being the most southern part of Canada, we are usually the first to begin the annual cycle of crop production. Our local greenhouse sector has just welcomed the first 600-700 Temporary Foreign Workers this past week, with an additional 2,000 expected in the next several weeks. By June 2021, this region will have accepted over 15% of the 66,000 guest workers expected into Canada. Unbelievably, even this large number is not enough workers to fill the labour market. Unfortunately, a large, undocumented work force also fills this void in our labour market.

  • Joint Statement Calling for Sanctioning of Chinese and Hong Kong Officials and Protection for Hong Kongers at Risk of Political Persecution
    Joint statement calling for sanctioning of Chinese and Hong Kong officials and protection for Hong Kongers at risk of political persecution We, the undersigned, call upon the Government of Canada to take action in light of the mass arrests and assault on civil rights following the unilateral imposition of the new National Security Law in Hong Kong. Many in Hong Kong fear they will face the same fate as the student protestors in Tiananmen Square, defenders’ lawyers, and millions of interned Uyghurs, Tibetans, and faith groups whose rights of free expression and worship are denied. We urge the Government of Canada to offer a “Safe Harbour Program” with an expedited process to grant protection and permanent residency status to Hong Kongers at risk of political persecution under the National Security Law, including international students and expatriate workers who have been involved in protest actions in Canada. Furthermore, Canada must invoke the Sergei Magnitsky Law to sanction Chinese and Hong Kong officials who instituted the National Security Law, as well as other acts violating human rights; and to ban them and their immediate family members from Canada and freeze their Canadian assets. Canada needs to work closely with international allies with shared values to institute a strong policy toward China. It is time for Canada to take meaningful action to show leadership on the world stage.

By late afternoon, the number of applications had surpassed 532,000. “The number of people needing to apply for assistance is shocking, but not surprising,” said MP Brassard. “I have heard from many, many people who have been patiently waiting for the CERB because they are in desperate situations after losing their jobs or their self-employed work due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I encourage anyone who qualifies to apply for the CERB according to the established schedule.” To qualify for your first CERB application, you must: • be at least 15 years old. • have earned $5,000 or more in the past 12 months or during 2019. • have stopped working for at least 14 days due to the COVID-19 pandemic. • not be receiving employment or self employment income, provincial or federal benefits related to maternity or paternity leave. According to the Government, direct deposit payments will be received within 3 to 5 days and cheques should be received by mail within 10 days after the application is completed. Canadians who continue to be out of work after the first four-week period will be required to re-apply to continue receiving the CERB. If you are applying, use the following schedule: If you were born in the month of: Apply for CERB on: April, May, June Tuesdays, starting April 7 July, August, September Wednesdays, starting April 8 October, November, December Thursdays, starting April 9 Any month Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays In a letter sent last week, MP Dan Albas, Conservative Shadow Minister for Employment, Workforce Development and Disability Inclusion, called on the government to address gaps in the CERB which does not cover certain individuals, including university and college students.
