Memorials of Canada
Coming Winter 2006

Canada became the new home for many immigrants who had fled
the pogroms and strife of two world wars. The majority of
those who came were Ashkenazim from Eastern Europe, many of
whom were Holocaust survivors, but others were Sephardim who
came later from countries in North Africa and the Middle East.
Today the Jewish population in Montreal itself numbers over
100,000 strong.
