"Under the framework of an international division of labour, Punjabi immigrants were allowed in (to Canada) to do low paying, physically-hard jobs in sectors such as the agricultural industry of B.C. The underlying assumption was that the marginality plus the ethnic and racial factors would make it extremely difficult for immigrant workers to demand higher wages and better working conditions. This study is an illustration of the fact that this marginal labour force has stood up and demanded parity with the mainstream working class." - Sadhu Binning in The CFU, A Case Study in Social Movements, 1982
