Antwort

Stellungnahme angefragt: Ja, von Journalist

Ergriffene Maßnahmen: The agency's permit has been revoked by CNESST. CNESST is also taking legal action for unpaid wages totaling nearly $100,000. The Iris Agency did not respond to the journalist's requests for comment. In April 2026, it was reported that nineteen of the caregivers have become undocumented after their Temporary Resident Permits expired while their civil claim against the company continued through Quebec’s court system. Advocates argue this shows a loophole in Canada’s protection of migrants who have been subjected to exploitation.
