Linguistic Discrimination: Human Rights Advocacy

Federal Immigration Dept: Montreal's Centre for Research-Action on Race Relations has taken on the case of 30 people of Haitian origin who work as private security guards at a federal immigration detention centre in Laval, according to CBC. CRARR executive director Fo Niemi said the policy unfairly targets the Haitian workers because of their language and a group of Quebec security guards is facing linguistic discrimination for being told not to speak Creole on the job, says a human rights advocacy group. The guards said they received a memo from their employer, Garda, telling them to speak only English or French while at work, even amongst themselves. As reported in the news.
