Le député libéral d’Honoré-Mercier Pablo Rodriguez prendra de nouveau le bâton de pèlerin dimanche pour se rendre en Californie afin de tuer dans l’oeuf une possible vague de demandeurs d’asile dans la foulée de la décision de l’administration Trump de mettre fin au statut de protection temporaire (TPS) qui protégeait de l’expulsion plus de 200 000 Salvadoriens résidant aux États-Unis.

The federal government’s contingency plans for a new surge of asylum seekers at the border this winter could be put to the test with the pending U.S. decision on the fate of as many as 200,000 Salvadorans. The Trump administration is on the cusp of announcing whether it will renew the temporary protected status that’s allowed Salvadorans to live in the United States without fear of deportation since 2001. Their status expires in March, and with the U.S. ending what’s known as the TPS program for thousands of nationals from other countries in recent months, it’s likely Salvadorans are next.

The Liberal government has relaunched a lottery system to reunite immigrant families, despite a backlash from frustrated sponsors. A one-month period opened this week inviting entries to an online draw that gives people a chance at one of 10,000 spots that allow them to apply to sponsor their parents or grandparents. The lottery system replaced the former first-come, first-served process last year. This year’s version includes additional questions after widespread criticism that some people picked in the 2017 pool did not meet financial requirements or other qualifications.

Two of Winnipeg’s cultural communities are teaming up for a joint event to show off their culinary skills.
The event, spearheaded by Folklorama, brings together members of the annual cultural celebration’s Japanese and Filipino pavilions, who have planned an evening that will combine the foods of both cultures. In addition to serving the food, the evening will include demonstrations on how to prepare the dishes.

When nurse practitioners from Windsor were stopped at the border and not allowed to go to work at Detroit hospitals this past summer, the panic and problems of renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement suddenly became clear. The stressful summer issue for about 30 Canadian nurses could become reality for thousands more if the Donald Trump administration cracks down on labour mobility as the countries renegotiate NAFTA. Businesses and individuals worry the entire professional category might disappear.
