The Opening

We start the week reminded of Canada’s long standing assistance to refugees from all over the world. On November 28, 1956, the Gov’t of Canada releases $1,000,00 to assist Hungarian Refugees fleeing their country in the aftermath of a Soviet Crack down in Eastern Europe. Through the month of December 1958 100 Hungarian refuges would arrive in Toronto daily. By 1959 over 36,000 Hungarians would seek refuge here in Canada.
