On this episode, Steven and deanna discuss the recommendations section of the recent report from the Standing Committee on Citizenship and Immigration regarding "closed work permits and temporary foreign workers" (full report here). Our discussion also touches on the recently announced "Gender-based violence guiding principles and commitments" released by the Canada Border Services Agency.

The conversation focuses on the tension between these broad government directives -- which respond (in part) to negative comments made by the United Nations Human Rights Council in their rather damning report on Canada's temporary foreign worker program, and actual immigration policy as it is evolving in recent months. This brings us back to a general conversation about Canada's plans to reduce permanent resident quotas in the upcoming year, and to deal with the numbers of temporary foreign workers and students who will find themselves unable to extend their status when their current permits expire.

Also referenced in the recording: this article from the CBC.
