Info Radio-Canada – Simon Jolin-Barrette se fait rassurant face au milieu des affaires

Toronto Star – Toronto Immigrants Face ‘Thick Glass Ceiling’ When It Comes to Executive Jobs, Study Finds
Among the leading Greater Toronto Area employers across the public, private and non-profit sectors, only 6 per cent of executives — those at the level of vice-president or above — are immigrants, according to the study, “Building a Corporate Ladder for All,” to be released Thursday by the Toronto Region Immigrant Employment Council. While the public and non-profit sectors are faring slightly better with 6.6 per cent of their executives being immigrants, just 5 per cent of corporate executives overall in the GTA are newcomers, says the study.
CTV News – Guatemalan Family Faces Tough Choice as Deportation Looms in the New Year
Sandra Morales and her husband Daniel Roblero fled violence and persecution in Guatemala in the 1990s and lived illegally in the U.S. for years where they met, married and had six children. With the advent of the Trump presidency, they feared stepped-up immigration enforcement would lead to their deportation and their kids — aged five to 18, who are U.S. citizens — being taken from them.

An appeal is supposed to be filed within a month of conviction, but Rushit’s lawyer argued that circumstances, such as the amount of time it took to access legal counsel and disclosure, should warrant an exception.

La Presse – Formation et immigration : les sciences humaines battent les sciences pures
Nos finissants du cégep et de l’université se placent mieux que jamais au Québec, grâce à une économie dynamique. Il reste toutefois des formations moins prisées sur le marché du travail. Et dans certains cas, la plus faible demande pour des formations ne date pas d’hier, mais de plus de 20 ans, et il est donc peu probable que cette tendance change du jour au lendemain.
