\nDolores Chew, F\u00e9d\u00e9ration des femmes de Qu\u00e9bec (FFQ)

At an outdoors press conference on Saturday, Solidarity Across Borders will announce ambitious plans, including a seven-day march from Montreal to Ottawa, to build support for an ongoing, comprehensive regularization programme for all migrants with a precarious status.<\/p>\n

The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed migrants without permanent status into ever deeper precarity while simultaneously shining a public spotlight on the place they hold in Canadian society as both essential to the capitalist economy and disposable. The pan-Canadian Migrant Rights Network has taken the lead in mobilizing support across Quebec and Canada for status for all, a position echoed in recent months by Louise Arbour, the City of Montreal, and Amnistie internationale Canada francophone.<\/p>\n

The migrant struggle for human dignity and equality finds allies in resurgent movements fighting for Black rights\/against racism, Indigenous sovereignty\/against colonialism, women\u2019s autonomy\/against patriarchy, housing rights\/against gentrification, labour rights\/against capitalism and for a future\/against environmental destruction. Spokespersons from some of these movements will also join the press conference on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The press conference will respect all COVID-safety measures.<\/p>\n
