I often visit my family and friends in the Norfolk region and Six Nations in southern Ontario ... in the summer time, whole towns are just overflowing with migrant workers ... Simcoe literally turns into a Mexican / Jamaican town for a while ... and all the entitled locals just find it all completely normal that we hire cheap labourers with no rights to harvest the fields while we give them little to no money for their work.
