Canada contemplates worker amnesty United Press International
The Universal Workers Union, Local 183, has said at least 10,000 undocumented drywallers, carpenters, house framers, painters and carpenters are working in the Toronto area alone.
The federal government estimates there may be as many as 100,000 illegal immigrants across the country. They typically earn less than Canadian citizens and fear being deported or denied access to healthcare, schooling and other government services.------------------------------------------- posted 7:01 AM :: reference link ::
