Farm workers in Ontario, Canada are not entitled to:
minimum wage
daily and weekly limits on hours of work
daily rest periods
time off between shifts
weekly/bi-weekly rest periods
eating periods
three-hour rule (if you show up for work and are sent home before you’ve been there for three hours, most jobs are required to pay you for three hours)
Are you suggesting we don’t give it to sex workers because farmers don’t have it or we give it to farmers too.
Technically I think most farmers are their own business so if they want to have holidays off they can. The alternative is state run farms which I support fully and completely.
I’m just saying what farm workers don’t get. Farm workers and sex workers both deserve better than they get. This is specifically for people employed on farms and not for people who own farm businesses. Most of our food is grown by people making less than minimum wage. The people who own the farms aren’t the ones doing most of the work.

Think they were referring to the last sentence from the comment they replied to:
So most definitely just supporting agricultural workers rights.
Only 47% are self employed actually, and 30% are temporary foreign workers that can get screwed pretty bad
Does this count family members?
