Abstract
Grounded in an analysis of interviews with migrant farm workers in Canada, this article explores how learning in the everyday contexts of temporary transnational labor
migration is implicated in both migrant identity formation and the social reproduction
of an established and growing labor migration regime. The article focuses on thinking
through how workers negotiate the intergenerational workplace tensions that permeate life in Canada’s Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program. The findings suggest
that through their sustained participation in the everyday social practices that develop
through dormitory-living, transnational laborers learn to become migrant workers.
This formation of migrant worker identities in turn contributes to the reproduction
of the social relations that support the ongoing practice of circulatory labor migration
in the Canadian agricultural industry.
