I finally had the burst of energy to talk and rant about the disastrous healthcare system here in Canada and how neoliberal employment-immigration policies are just another way of stealing resources from another country like the Philippines. Unsurprisingly, imperialist nations like Canada and the West allies are relying back again on their former colonies.
From 1960 to the 1970s, due to USA’s healthcare worker shortages coming out from the Second World War, they needed a lot of care providers for all their injured G.I.s. When the USA violently occupied the Philippines in the early 1900s, they set up an education system oriented to serve American interests. I’d say, it’s planting their seeds and imposing on us to be educated and speak in English. This seed bloomed because 50-60 years later, the first Labour Export Policy between former colonial master USA and former colony the Philippines was enacted. This caused a huge legal migration of Filipinos to fill in these labour shortages.
50 years later, they are still doing exactly the same thing in exchange for showering us with crumbs of “help”.
