Supported by Migrante Manitoba’s campaign and the community, 17 Filipino mechanics in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada won their right to job security. They were dismissed by 4Tracks Ltd without legal basis just three weeks after they started working for the company.

Venture Management in the Philippines recruited the Filipinos as truck mechanics. Upon arriving in Canada, they were made to perform tasks beyond the agreed scope and under unsafe conditions. This included working in winter without adequate protection. They were made to operate heavy equipment, including welding tools, without proper training or gear. They were housed in cramped rooms, with some forced to sleep on the floor with only cardboard padding. They also suffered verbal abuse and threats meant to prevent them from resisting.

In the US, the Tanggol Migrante Movement successfully stopped the planned deportation of Kuya G on December 7, 2025, and Tita Rebecca on January 2. They are Filipino immigrants detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. While in detention, they suffered medical neglect that led to severe illnesses and complications. The doctors said their health is in critical condition, and forcing them to travel could kill them.
