Book excerpt: After WWII Canada received an influx of Dutch immigrants. Some settled in the eastern regions of Nova Scotia. There were many reasons why the Dutch left their land of birth in search of new opportunities. The trip across the turbulent Atlantic, often in converted troop ships, was for many a most memorable experience. The Dutch immigrants faced many challenges: new language, different cultures, the feeling of isolation and the harsh winters. With determination and hard work, they succeeded in becoming an integral part of the communities in which they settled. "wat hebben zij toch veel meegemaakt" Dutch Roots - Proud Canadians was written by Dutch-born children of immigrants who were able to identify with many of the experiences. The authors are passionate about having the immigration story recorded for future generations.

Download or read book Landscapes of Injustice written by Jordan Stanger-Ross and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2020-08-20 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1942, the Canadian government forced more than 21,000 Japanese Canadians from their homes in British Columbia. They were told to bring only one suitcase each and officials vowed to protect the rest. Instead, Japanese Canadians were dispossessed, all their belongings either stolen or sold. The definitive statement of a major national research partnership, Landscapes of Injustice reinterprets the internment of Japanese Canadians by focusing on the deliberate and permanent destruction of home through the act of dispossession. All forms of property were taken. Families lost heirlooms and everyday possessions. They lost decades of investment and labour. They lost opportunities, neighbourhoods, and communities; they lost retirements, livelihoods, and educations. When Japanese Canadians were finally released from internment in 1949, they had no homes to return to. Asking why and how these events came to pass and charting Japanese Canadians' diverse responses, this book details the implications and legacies of injustice perpetrated under the cover of national security. In Landscapes of Injustice the diverse descendants of dispossession work together to understand what happened. They find that dispossession is not a chapter that closes or a period that neatly ends. It leaves enduring legacies of benefit and harm, shame and silence, and resilience and activism.
