Racism and Dangerous Working Conditions Part of Business as Usual for Montreal Temporary Employment Agencies and Their Clients
On October 6, I attended a tour and discussion of exploitive temporary employment agencies and their clients organized by the Immigrant Workers' Centre and Au Bas de l'Échelle.
