The Roundtable was hosted by long-time Surrey-based non-profit Surrey Philippine Independence Day Society (SPIDS) awarded recently as “2019 Most Influential Filipino Community Organization” in Canada. SPIDS gathered the highest number of signed petitions across Canada to pass Motion 155 facilitated by Surrey Centre MP Randeep Sarai.

Discussions on issues on the Caregiver’s English Language requirements, division in the community and Filipino Canadian organizations with questionable motives, exploitation of Canadian employers to Filipino migrant workers.
