About this episode
In the early 20th century, behind the language of nation-building and progress, Canada quietly built barriers — policies designed not to include, but to exclude.
In this episode, we uncover the story of Canada’s racist immigration policies during that time period— and the people they were meant to keep from ever calling this country home.
