Last Sunday, September 17th, 2023, the TeaMWork Project attended Migrant Worker Community Program and Windsor Essex Local Immigration Partnership’s Festival of Guest Nations at Seacliff Park in Leamington. Over 1000 people attended the festival to enjoy live music, dancing, and food from cultures all around the world. On top of the delicious food and entertainment, Migrant Workers also had the opportunity to connect with local support organizations and receive information about their rights while working in Canada.
