labour exploitation: He came to work in Canada to send funds home to his family wife and three children - for food and for medications for his 12-year-old son who had fractured his skull in an accident last Spring, according to National Observer. Now, he faced time in jail, loss of income, and deportation. His son weighed heavily on his mind. Enriquez is one of 15 migrant workers from Guatemala whose lawyer Susan Ramirez says are victims of fraud and labour exploitation. They are all part of an existing federal program in Canada that forces temporary workers to stick with a single employer. The 15 were all arrested and brought to the immigration detention centre in Laval, Quebec, after allegedly breaching their work permits. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
