Harsha Walia: Canada Border Services Agency

Federal Immigration Offices Dept: Protesters gathered outside the glass doors of Vancouver's federal immigration offices on Thursday, deploring a series of raids at construction job sites where border services agents rounded up immigrant workers who allegedly lacked proper work permits, according to Vancouver Sun. Harsha Walia, with the group No One Is Illegal, called the raids alarming. She said they are reminiscent of similar mass raids south of the border and VANCOUVER - Tearful families and immigration activists have demanded an end to what they call "American-style tactics" by officers who patrol Canada's borders and police immigration. They allege the Canada Border Services Agency brought in film crews to document surprise blitzes against the workers for a reality TV show, called Border Security. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
