The Immigrant Workers’ Centre and its members and allies mobilized for the Status for All March on July 17, 2022!

We demand an inclusive and comprehensive regularization program that includes all non-status people on Canadian soil, whatever their situation, whatever their year of arrival!

We demand that Quebec commit to this program and grant the Quebec selection certificate for true regularization!
