Who is Father Thomas Cano from Coyotes: A Journey Through the Secret World of America's Illegal Aliens and what is their importance?

Father Thomas Cano was the priest in the village of Ahuacatlan. He said the regular movement of men from the village to America created an entire economy of "widows and orphans", and that the regular leaving was a horrible situation for the community, bringing in more problems than the extra money could solve. The problems, according to Father Thomas, included sexually transmitted diseases.
