Citizenship and Immigration committee  The repatriation is definitely a concern to us. What we call the just-in-time workforce is the what HRSDC calls hiring of foreign workers in occupations that usually require a high school diploma or job-specific training. I address some of the concerns that we have in regard to this new program, which is supposed to be under review.

Citizenship and Immigration committee  My name is Stan Raper. I'm the national coordinator for the agricultural workers program of the United Food and Commercial Workers Union. We have been active in lobbying and trying to organize and assist agricultural workers nationally across Canada and primarily in the two provinces of Ontario and Quebec, which have the majority of the population of seasonal agricultural workers, under the seasonal agricultural workers program administered by HRSDC.
