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. -

Vacuum Tube Theory, a Basics Tutorial – Page 1
Vacuum Tube Theory, a Basics Tutorial – Page 1 Vacuum Tubes or Thermionic Valves come in many forms including the Diode, Triode, Tetrode, Pentode, Heptode and many more. These tubes have been manufactured by the millions in years gone by and even today the basic technology finds applications in today's electronics scene. It was the vacuum tube that first opened the way to what we know as electronics today, enabling first rectifiers and then active devices to be made and used. Although Vacuum Tube technology may appear to be dated in the highly semiconductor orientated electronics industry, many Vacuum Tubes are still used today in applications ranging from vintage wireless sets to high power radio transmitters. Until recently the most widely used thermionic device was the Cathode Ray Tube that was still manufactured by the million for use in television sets, computer monitors, oscilloscopes and a variety of other electronic equipment. Concept of thermionic emission Thermionic basics The simplest form of vacuum tube is the Diode. It is ideal to use this as the first building block for explanations of the technology. It consists of two electrodes - a Cathode and an Anode held within an evacuated glass bulb, connections being made to them through the glass envelope. If a Cathode is heated, it is found that electrons from the Cathode become increasingly active and as the temperature increases they can actually leave the Cathode and enter the surrounding space. When an electron leaves the Cathode it leaves behind a positive charge, equal but opposite to that of the electron. In fact there are many millions of electrons leaving the Cathode. -
