We demand a\u00a0regularization program that is complete, continuous and open to all the\u00a0people living in Quebec who do not have legal status (people without\u00a0permanent residency or Canadian citizenship). Regularization programs have\u00a0been called amnesties in other countries, but we prefer not to use this\u00a0term because migrants don&#8217;t need to be excused or pardon for making the\u00a0perfectly legitimate and understandable decision to migrate to another\u00a0part of the world, either for political, economic or other reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Non status migrants and temporary workers are the most exploited in the\u00a0labor market and generally within society. Their existence creates an\u00a0unfair reality in the core of our communities where some people have\u00a0access to certain rights and fundamental services such as education,\u00a0healthcare and labour rights, and where others are excluded. People living\u00a0without status can be easily exploited and have to live in constant fear\u00a0of being deported. They must live in fear, anguish and isolation.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, 9 out of 10 refugee cases by Mexicans have been refused\u00a0under the erroneous argument that we are &#8220;bogus refugees&#8221; and that we\u00a0abuse of the &#8220;generosity&#8221; of the Canadian immigration system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mexicans United for Regularization are organizing a demonstration in order to come out of invisibility and to demand justice and dignity.
