"Equal labour rights for migrant workers is now more than a concept. It's a contract," says UFCW Canada National president Hanley. "It shows the way for thousands of other migrant and temporary workers brought to Canada for agriculture and other industries, and UFCW Canada is there to assist them. This is history in the making."

"I want to welcome our newest members," says Robert Ziegler, president of UFCW Canada Local 832," and to congratulate them for having the courage to stand up for the same rights enjoyed by most other workers in Canada. We look forward to serving them, and learning from them."
