Hi guys, there is a story on Global BC News Hour at 6 pm tonight (BC time). If you don't get a chance to watch it or you are not from BC then look it up on-line. You can watch a video on Global TV BC site, it's called "Why Canada won’t allow a 10 year-old girl to visit her father in BC".

There are talking about Immigration Canada not letting a daughter to visit her father here, in Canada. She is autistic. Anyway... I thought we could try to reach Global News. I'll watch it, maybe they'll give reporter's name or I'll try to find a contact.

Has anyone tried to contact Global BC News?

since we are over 100 people on facebook,let each person give her location if we have like 20 people in each province,then we should all set a day to protest this and invite a report to talk to us or all of us should keep disturbing CIC's phone everyday day untill dey do something.

I've just watched that piece on Immigration Canada on Global News. It would be great to get some publicity for our situation. I wish we could go on strike! :

@Roselly, Yes and I've been there twice with my aunt who's a cashier in a nearby bookstore inside CBC buildind. I will really do this next week so if you have something to change or add in the letter, email it to me or PM me. Hope it will work

strike , we have no canadian status now , if not all of live-in caregivers , they won't care but it would be dangerous to us!
if they care , they would not have done this to us.

I know, I wish we could. We are not bus drivers or airlines' employees. But I wish there was a way for us to make some impact, to get heard.

@madeira= what happen to the story of a daughter and the father? did you get the reporter's name?

Speaking of Human Rights. I've looked into Canadian Human Rights Act. I don't think we can file a complaint with them. There is no discrimination and that's what the Act is for. There is a web site. Look it up - Canadian Human Rights Commission. They also have offices in Ottawa, Edmonton and Montreal.

Does anyone know who was the lawyer/organization that dealt with that case when a caregiver got refused PR after second medical when she was diagnosed with cancer. That's when CIC dropped the second medical after some time. Maybe we can try contacting them.

@ madeira= what happen to the story of a daughter and the father? did you get the reporter's name?

Not much. They just met with the guy and showed the letter from CIC and the comment they got from CIC. Nothing much. CIC's letter said that decision was final. You can watch it on-line Global TV BC " Denied for autism"

I know who was Juana Tejada' lawyer, his name is Rafael Fabregas . He strongly asks PR UPON ARRIVAL for us , but the minister didn't care, he asks for us till today.

rosellyalung, do you think we should let the Miniser Kenney know about the following points:
1. according to the LCP, most live-in caregivers will get the pr finally as long as we meet all the requirements of LCP, but our long depressing working situation will destroy our health, will increase Canadian medical cost,;
2. according to the LCP , live-in caregivers' dependants will finally get to Canada, but will cost more Canadian government's finance for their English and settling in Canada if come later.
3. For the humane Canada and Canadians , we are not supposed to be treated like this.

For both of sides , please don't keep live-in caregivers to be live-in caregiver for so long.

I am so angry that I don't know how to make the words expertly.
