———-This coming May 2012, Solidarity Across Borders, Dignidad Migrante, Mexicans United for Regularization, No One Is Illegal, and the Immigrant Workers Center will together be organizing events and actions on the theme “Status for All”. The culmination of our mobilizing efforts will be a “Status for All” march on the streets of Montreal on May 26, 2012. We are also planning a migrant justice Mayday contingent, a benefit show and a community dinner. Leading up to May, there will be active community outreach efforts in Montreal neighborhoods.This year’s Status for All mobilization builds on a year of continued actions and mobilizing. Migrants such as Paola Ortiz and Victor Morales have publicly fought against removal orders, and have mobilized campaigns around their cases. Recently a group of non-status migrants, Mexicans United for Regularization (MUR), has formed to self-organize for regularization and against deportations. In Canada’s detention centers, migrants continue to resist, including public hunger strikes in Niagra (Ontario) and British Columbia. This past October, a Solidarity City conference continued the efforts for safe access to services like education, health care, shelters, housing and food banks.

The Status for All Organizing Assembly is coming together in full support of the following demands: i) Status for All, meaning a comprehensive, inclusive and ongoing regularization program for all non-status people; ii) an end to deportations and detentions; iii) an end to the double punishment of migrants with criminal records; iv) support for a Solidarity City which means, in part, full access to services such as health care, education, housing, food, shelters and more. The Status for All Organizing Assembly will support these demands by organizing for a march on May 26, as well as building events such as a MayDay contingent, benefit show, community dinner, as well as outreach efforts in Montreal neighborhoods.

Solidaridad sin Fronteras, Dignidad Migrante, Mexican@s Unidos por la Regularización, Nadie es Ilegal y el Centro de la Trabajadores y Trabajadoras Inmigrantes organizan, para el mes de mayo del 2012, una serie de actividades y acciones bajo el tema « Papeles para todas y todos ». La culminación  de nuestros esfuerzos de movilización consistirá en una marcha « Papeles para todas y todos » en la calles de Montréal el 26 de mayo del 2012. También estamos  planeando un contingente por la justicia migratoria en el marco de la manifestación del primer de mayo, un espectáculo para recaudar fondos así que una cena comunitaria. Con el fin de construir progresivamente la movilización para el mes de mayo, habrá esfuerzos de movilización en las diferentes comunidades y barrios de Montréal.

Las movilizaciones alrededor del tema « Papeles para todas y todos » se están construyendo este año a través de un programa continuo de acción y de movilización. Personas emigrantes como Paola Ortiz y Victor Morales han luchado públicamente en contra de las órdenes de deportación y han construido campañas de movilización alrededor de sus casos. Recientemente, un grupo de migrantes sin estatus, Mexicanos Unidos por la Regularización, se ha organizado con el fin de organizarse por su regularización y en contra de las deportaciones. En los centros de detención canadienses, los migrantes siguen protestando, entre otros, por el medio de huelgas de hambre en Niagara (Ontario) y en Colombia británica. En octubre, una conferencia de Ciudad Solidaria ha seguido con sus esfuerzos para otorgar un acceso seguro a servicios sociales tales como la educación, la salud, la vivienda, y los bancos de alimentos.

La asamblea de organización de la campaña « Papeles para todas y todos » se reúne con el fin de apoyar las demandas siguientes: i) Papeles para todas y todos, lo que consiste en una demanda por un programa de regularización completo, continuo y abierto a todas la personas sin estatus; ii) el cese de las deportaciones y de las detenciones; iii) la abolición de la doble pena en contra de los migrantes que tienen un antecedente penal; iv) un apoyo a Ciudad Solidaria, lo que se traduce, entre otros, por un acceso completo a servicios sociales tales como servicios de salud, de educación, vivienda, de bancos de alimentos. La asamblea de organización de « Papeles para todas y todos » apoyará estas demandas  a través de una marcha el 26 de mayo del 2012 así como por medio de diversos eventos, así como el contingente que participará en la manifestación del primero de mayo, la cena de recaudación de fondos y los esfuerzos de movilización en diferentes barrios de Montréal.
