This is a good start to your page. I am interested to see how you develop this topic, as I am interested in learning more about Migrant Workers in Canada. I learned a bit about TFWs in one of my sociology classes this past semester, and found it so interesting that this is a population that really seems to be hiding in plain sight. For instance, I'm from a community that has quite a few farms nearby, and it is crazy to think how uneducated I previously was on the issues these workers face. I think it's a good idea that you started your page with some definitions of TFWs, and how the process works in Canada. Perhaps you could add to your page by discussing the reasons why people decide to leave their home countries and become TFWs. Perhaps you could also bring in an intersectional approach by discussing the gendered differences between people in the Live-In Caregiver program vs TFWs who work as farm labourers. I'm sure you are aware that you will need to add some more sources to your page, but overall this is a good start.
