City News — Refugee Rights Day critical as a federal election campaign is underway
Amnesty, among other organizations, called on federal party leaders Thursday to uphold the rights of refugees and migrants during the federal election campaign. In an open letter, federal party leaders were asked to avoid scapegoating migrants and refugees on the campaign trail, and instead encouraged to protect the rights of refugees and welcome newcomers. Refugee Rights Day recognizes the landmark decision of Singh v. Canada, which gave refugees fundamental rights. The decision found that the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms protected the rights of refugee claimants.
City News — Edmonton newcomers fall victim to ‘complex pyramid scheme’ orchestrated by Chinese crime group: police
Police say dozens of Edmonton-area residents lost thousands of dollars in a “complex” international fake job investment scam, and authorities believe there could be more victims. The Edmonton Police Service says 30 victims from the Edmonton area – including several newcomers – confirmed losses of more than $84,000 from August 2021 through May 2022. Authorities say scammers sometimes impersonated law enforcement and Canada Revenue Agency employees to instill fear in the newcomers, with many complainants choosing to remain silent “due to threats of deportation or charges.” Police believe the scam impacted more than 600 people across Canada, resulting in more than $1.2 million in losses. An investigation revealed it operated from British Columbia but was orchestrated by an organized crime group from China.
The Conversation — Canada’s labour market is failing racialized immigrant women, requiring an urgent policy response
Despite Canada’s commitment to gender equity through human rights legislation and policies, the country ranked eighth in gender pay disparity among 43 nations in 2018. While gender wage gaps affect all women, they are particularly pronounced for those from marginalized communities. A 2015 United Nations Human Rights report raised concerns about “the persisting inequalities between women and men” in Canada, highlighting the gender pay gap and its disproportionate impact on low-income, racialized and Indigenous women. Historical data reflects the persistence of these inequalities. The 2001 and 2016 censuses reveal that labour market inequalities in Canada have remained both gendered and racialized over the past two decades.
CBC News — ‘Dreams being lost’ as many shut out of IRCC’s permanent residency pilot, consultant says
Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) launched its latest pilot on Monday, and Lastimosa wasn’t the only one to flag serious problems with the website. Immigration experts say thousands of experienced home workers like Lastimosa didn’t have an opportunity to apply because of IRCC’s website slowdown. IRCC’s pilot invited home-care workers to apply on a first come, first served basis. On Monday, more than 45,000 people tried to apply but the limited spots filled in just over four hours, the IRCC said in an emailed statement to CBC Toronto.
