Update: May 13

Recent media attention has been excellent. The Toronto Star's continued series has generated a lot of interest in the plight of caregivers. So, too, has the story of Ruby Dhalla.

It is unfortunate to see a public figure so quickly attacked when stories like these arise. Aside from the need for due process, the got'cha politics game very consistently overlooks systemic problems, opting for stories that are immediate and shocking. The CCA has been glad for each and every media agency that spoken with us about the root problems with Canada's live-in caregiver program.

Our special thanks goes out to CFRA 580 News Talk Radio, the Winnipeg Free Press, and Global Television.
