Business or Bureaucratic Dominance in Immigration Policymaking in Canada: Why was Mexico Included in the Caribbean Seasonal Agricultural Workers Program in 1974?

Abstract This article considers why Mexico was added to the Caribbean Seasonal Agricultural Workers’ Program in Canada in 1974. It also asks how the conflicting interests of the host country’s bureaucracies, its business community, and the sending countries’ representatives influence the formation of policies on seasonal migration programs? The article suggests that recent versions of political economy, which emphasize a neoliberal turn in Canadian immigration policy, help only partly to explain why Mexico was added to the Caribbean Seasonal Agricultural Workers Program in 1974. The author argues that political economists need also to pay attention to the independent interests of immigration bureaucrats and bureaucracies in the policy-making process. Canadian immigration officials were responsive to employer interests, but also gave the green light to Mexican migrant workers as a way to solve a particular legitimacy crisis that they were facing in the early 1970s. From immigration bureaucrats’ point of view, this policy also had the effect of helping to resolve embarrassing and politically explosive challenges to its claimed ability to supply Ontario farmers with suitable supplies of farm labour.Cet article se penche sur l’inclusion du Mexique dans le Programme des travailleurs agricoles saisonniers des Antilles en 1974. Il porte également sur l’influence qu’ont les intérêts antagonistes des bureaucraties et du milieu des affaires du pays hôte et des représentants des pays visiteurs sur l’élaboration des politiques relatives aux programmes de migration saisonnière. Nous proposons que les versions récentes de politiques économiques, manifestant le virage néo-libéral dans la politique canadienne en matière d’immigration, ne font qu’expliquer en partie pourquoi le Mexique a été ajouté au Programme des travailleurs agricoles saisonniers des Antilles en 1974. Nous faisons valoir le point de vue selon lequel les économistes devraient aussi prendre en compte les intérêts indépendants des bureaucrates et des bureaucraties liés à l’immigration dans l’élaboration des politiques. Les agents d’immigration canadiens ont tenu compte des intérêts des employeurs, mais s’ils ont donné le feu vert aux travailleurs saisonniers Mexicains, c’était également pour tenter de résoudre une crise de légitimité à laquelle ils étaient confrontés au début des années 1970. Du point de vue des bureaucrates au ministère d’immigration, cette politique a contribué à résoudre les doutes gênants et très controversés sur le plan politique quant à leur capacité de fournir aux fermiers de l’Ontario une main d’œuvre suffisamment importante.
