The commission is currently conducting two investigations into allegations of discrimination in the exercise of rights of seasonal agricultural workers. We are also examining the situation at [Inaudible - Editor] and the protection of live-in caregivers regarding occupational health and safety.
Lastly, the commission emphasizes the importance of respect for the rights of migrant workers, in particular those of agricultural workers and live-in caregivers who are vulnerable. Consequently, we believe that the Government of Canada should ratify the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families. Joining that convention would make it possible to revise the program as a whole in order to offer the best possible protection for the rights of temporary migrant workers, but also to guarantee them internationally recognized human rights protection.
We thank committee members for receiving us in the context of these hearings.
