During the First World War, Canada interned thousands of its own citizens — mostly Ukrainians, but also other Eastern Europeans — under the War Measures Act. More than 8,500 people were held in 24 camps across the country, from Halifax to Vancouver Island, simply because they were subjects of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This episode explores the political climate that led to the policy, the conditions inside the camps, and the long-term impact on Ukrainian-Canadian communities. We talk about Sir Wilfrid Laurier's government, the rise of nativist sentiment, the notorious camp at Kapuskasing, forced labour on national parks, and the 2005 recognition of the internment as a 'wrongful deprivation.' It's a chapter of Canadian history that's often overlooked — but one that speaks volumes about how fear and prejudice can shape national policy. #CanadaHistory #UkrainianInternment #FirstWorldWar #EnemyAliens #WarMeasuresAct #Kapuskasing #SirWilfridLaurier #CanadianInternment #UkrainianCanadian #BanffNationalPark #FortHenry #NationalParks #Nativism #ImmigrationHistory #CivilLiberties #WorldWarI #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
