Abstract
This paper combines critical antiracist perspectives with Poulantzas’ and Hall’s concepts of authoritarian statism and populism to examine the diminishment of democratic processes and the intensification of social relations of inequality in citizenship, immigration, and the state that accompanied the controversial expansion of migrant worker programs under Canada’s former Conservative government (2006–2015). It also discusses how the party and former government sought to maintain these problematic structures and their later response to the political fallout caused by their approach. The conclusion discusses this policy realm under the subsequent Liberal government during the COVID-19 pandemic.
