Labour reporter Gabriela Calugay-Casuga sits down with Gauri Sreenivasan of the Canadian Council for Refugees to discuss the current state of Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker Program and the issues surrounding the closed work permit system.

Sreenivasan last joined us on rabble radio in July to talk about the Lush Cosmetics x Canadian Council for Refugees ‘Neighbours’ campaign. Tune into that episode here.
