Immigrants Protest Deportation Of Non-Status Workers

As he marched in a protest Saturday with hundreds of other immigrants and refugees, Aranga recalled how the officers from Immigration Canada's enforcement branch stood impatiently in his room and were rude to him while he searched for his identification. As a refugee claimant, Aranga's passport is now in the hands of Immigration Canada while he awaits a hearing to get refugee status. "They said 'Show me your passport right away,"' Haranga said. "While I was searching for my ID, they were looking around my room." Aranga was joined by about 1,000 other immigrants, refugees and their supporters who demonstrated in Toronto on Saturday to protest the deportations of illegal workers. http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2006/05/27/1601295-cp.html
