World War 2 British Child Evacuees to Canada

From the recent OGS e-news.

World War 2 British Child Evacuees to Canada
John D. Reid, Canada’s Anglo-Celtic Connnections
 
Those who didn't get to John’s talk at OGS Ottawa Branch last Saturday may be interested to view the National Film Board (Canada) video shown at the end of the presentation.

It is Second World War propaganda, everything wasn't as rosy in Canada as portrayed, but allowing for that tells the story from the perspective of 1940. You will likely recognize the narrator.  To view it, click here.
