Milanie's Guardianship

This is part 2 of a two-part episode where we speak with Mary Jane
and Milanie, two former migrant caregivers and Aimee, an advocate
with Migrante Ottawa, a cause-oriented organization that promotes
the rights and welfare of Filipino migrants in Canada. We talk
about the essential work Mary Jane and Milanie did to care for
Canadian children and elderly, the conditions that they were
subject to and their heartbreaking separation from family. They
express the importance of advocacy and support provided by
grassroots organizations like Migrante. We discuss how immigration
law and the design of the temporary foreign worker program shaped
their lived experiences.
