In the documentary El Contrato by Min Sook Lee‚ talks about how migrant works are working temporary jobs in Leamington Ontario.

¿Es el aborto una solución? Un hombre y una mujer‚ una relación sexual‚ un espermatozoide y un óvulo‚ una nueva vida humana. Creo que esto no basta para asegurarle a un niño el estilo de vida que merece: necesita otras mil cosas más‚ aun desde antes de nacer‚ para desarrollarse íntegramente.

just 8‚124 square miles‚ El Salvador is the smallest country in Central America. Like many of its’ neighboring countries‚ it possesses very few natural resources. Since the nation’s economy is based predominantly on agriculture‚ it’s no surprise that its’ citizens often experience “resource roller coasters”.
