Thanks everyone for your input.
getting another workvisa as jolinar has suggested is easier said than done. There is a cost to the employer for a sponsorship and it includes some paperwork. Most employers dread having to do this
sorry bertuzzi, I wont say if it is or isnt, but i will say that the whole restaurant staff was hired based on a specific ethnic background. Because of this and how close knit their ethnic community is, she's afraid of the backlash from not only the employers but from the community as well. Unfortunately, most people tend to believe the story from a somebody (the employer) than a nobody
her english is alright. she could have a normal conversation as long as heavy slang and complicated words arent used. she met her employers here in Calgary, and they arent family/friends.
She wont be sent back if she quits. She could get a visitor's visa and still stay in Canada. However in order to eat and pay the bills, you have to have income and it's finding work that's the problem.
We're still undecided on whether something would be done about this. The ultimate decision is on her part, so we'll have to see.
I like the idea of having a CP blacklist of restaurants where we could identify Calgary restaurants with shady practices and awful dining experiences
