We are Jose is an awareness raising tour being led by Jose Figueroa, an El Savadoran man living in Langley, B.C. with a deportation order against him by the Canadian government. According to Figueroa, the government cannot speak publicly about this order due to the privacy act, but he's traveling the country and talking to Canadians about how this process has been affecting his family.

Figueroa says the reason the government wants to deport him, after living in Canada for the last 14 years with his wife and three Canadian-born children, is because of his past affiliation with the FMLN (Frente Farabundo Marti para la Liberacion Nacional) which since 2009 has been the democratically-elected government in El Salvador.
