Women are vulnerable in any circumstance, class, clase or whatever. In developing countries as well as developed countries womem are still seen as chattles and goodies to take when they feel peckish. Women and men with a social conscious need to band together to fight this battle that many erroneously think that women have achieved parity with me. There is still a lot of work to do. However, the situation for women of lower socio-economic is a lot worse and need our help in raising awareness of their situation.

Criminals with only landed immigrant gets deported after serving time in Canadian jails.
Many immigrants and refugees believe that once they land in Canada with their landed immigrant visas they are home free, safe and sound. All this is true once you life a live free of crime. If however, one succumbs to the lure of easy street where money flows easily and under the cloak of secrecy and darkness from the hands of criminals such as drug dealers and other types of traffickers and one is caught while not a Canadian citizen, one can be tried sent to jail and after jail deported back to where they come from.
Many Winnipeg refugees and immigrants dreams of a new life in a new and prosperous country vanished in this way. And it s seems that no among of crying and promising to be better have worked in the past.
Immigrants and refugees ought to think 100 times before deciding to give in to the temptations of joining a gang or doing anything illegal because chances are you will be caught and you will be sure to be deported as soon as you have served your time in Canada.
Andrew Bawa, community worker for Project Oasis that focus of immigrant/refugee youths, says that gang recruiters even show up at the airport to scout potential prospects for their despicable trade. The gang offers immediate cash which makes going to school less attractive.
This is a serious problem for refugee youths, not only in Winnipeg but in most major cities in Canada and is a problem that remains to be effectively tackled. Perhaps youths ought to be warned about the dangers of gang life even before they leave refugee camps to let them know that a better life may await them but they must abide by the law.
