There is no access to<br \/>\npermanent residency for most low-wage migrants in Canada, and only 60% of refugee claimants are<br \/>\naccepted. Almost all undocumented immigrants in Canada were previously on a temporary<br \/>\nauthorization (work, study, refugee claimant permit). They reached a point where they could not get<br \/>\npermanent residency and the federal government refused to renew their permits. They were faced with<br \/>\nan impossible choice: either return to a country where they may face war, discimination, climate<br \/>\ncatastrophe or no economic opportunities and leave communities, families and relationships in Canada<br \/>\nOR stay without access to any rights and services and in daily fear of deportation. Those who stay<br \/>\nbecome undocumented immigrants.<\/p>\n<p>Without permanent resident status, undocumented people are unable to assert rights at work or access<br \/>\nbasic healthcare. They face discrimination and exploitation because of the well-founded fear of<br \/>\ndeportation. Non-status people are part of communities. They are neighbours, classmates, parents,<br \/>\nspouses, children, coworkers and caretakers. Because of lack of permanent resident status,<br \/>\nundocumented people experience insecure housing, abuse at work, poverty and fear. The uncertainty<br \/>\nabout the future, constant stress of making ends meet and risks of detention and deportation<br \/>\nnegatively impacts their health. Living without status requires a tremendous amount of resilience. <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1-Eqs3AN0ZCVziF779EYBLHfZvApCMzLz\/view\">Continue reading<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Undocumented Migrants in Canada Download the pdf.
