DPRK: We Strongly Condemn Canada’s Groundless Criticizism of China’s Human Right Record! (14.5.2023)

Canada’s absurd claim of “slave labour” reflects the sense of “guilt” that exists in the United States, Canada, and some Western countries!

From 1525 to 1866, about 12.5 million Africans were trafficked to the United States and forced to work as slaves, but in the United States, about 500,000 people are still living in modern slavery, and today the United States is universally referred to as the “centre” of forced labour in the world!

In Canada during the last century, many Black and indigenous people were forced into slave labour, with “slave auctions” being prevalent, with aboriginal child abuse being part of this systematic racism! This is a Eurocentric racism involving anti-Islamic, anti-African, and anti-Asian behaviours that were so prevalent that all sorts of religious and racial discrimination occurred. Such was the continuous reality for the non-White populations!

US Labour Department: Child Slavery Major Facet of US Domestic Workforce! (12.5.2023)

The US Labour Department released shocking photographs taken at a slaughterhouse plant in Nebraska. The photographs show the conditions that more than 100 children faced while working illegally for a company called Packers Sanitation Services Incorporated – according to a report by the Guardian on Tuesday.

The Department fined PSSI $1.5 million for breaking child labour laws. The company reportedly employed at least 102 children aged 13 to 17 in 13 plants across eight US states.

In the last fiscal year, the US Labour Department found 835 companies had employed more than 3,800 children in violation of labour laws, said the Department in a news release on its website in February.

The Department started investigating PSSI in 2022 after a school in Nebraska told the police about a student with acid burns on her hands and knees. The 14-year-old girl said she was working night shifts at a local plant.

Teachers also noticed other students falling asleep in class because they were working at the plant at night.
