CIVILIAN INTERNMENT IN CANADA - Histories and Legacies

Civilian Internment in Canada initiates a conversation about not only internment, but also about the laws and procedures--past and present--which allow the state to disregard the basic civil liberties of some of its most vulnerable citizens.

Riassunto

Examines abuse of the civil rights and liberties of tens of thousands of Canadians and Canadian residents via internment from 1914 to the present day. This ongoing story spans both war and peacetime and has affected people from a wide variety of political backgrounds and ethno-cultural communities.
