The Agriculture Workers Alliance (AWA) is proud to introduce it's Blog to anyone interested in talking about the issues surrounding agriculture workers in Canada whether they are foreign or domestic.
It has been along road of struggles for our brothers and sisters in the most dangerous and precarious sector. There has been victories and there have been disappointments along the way. Yet, one thing still remains, the resilience of these workers to continuing fighting for dignity, respect and overall the recognition of their hard labour in the Canadian Fields.
We proudly continue to fight alongside them and we hope that you will too.
The AWA in association with United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Canada, the country's largest private-sector union, operates ten agriculture worker support centres across Canada, including AWA centres in Surrey, Abbotsford, and Kelowna, BC; Portage la Prairie, Manitoba; Leamington, Simcoe, Virgil and Bradford, in Ontario; St. Eustache and St. Remy in Quebec.
