Since Maria was injured at work, she’s had to choose between paying for rent or healthcare. Thousands are denied healthcare coverage in Ontario because of their immigration status.

Maria is a personal support worker caring for the elderly. She does not have healthcare coverage in Ontario because she does not have permanent immigration status. This International Women's Day, let's fight for equal rights for women like Maria and demand #Healthcare4All.
Our communities thrive when all of us are healthier. #StatusForAll #Justice4Workers #ONpoli
