Spanning seven decades (1869-1939), approximately 100,000 boys and girls arrived in Canada. 

They persevered against the odds, took root and changed the landscape of our country.

They multiplied and today their offspring make up ten percent of Canada’s population.

Books will be available for signing and purchase.
