Uniting Uptowners and Downtowners: The Jewish Electorate and Quebec Provincial Politics 1927-39
|
| Abstract |
Earlier studies of Montreal's Jewish community of the 1930s suggested that it was divided into two factions: the Uptowners or more established Jews, and the Downtowners or more recent immigrants. The author argues that the failure to obtain a separate Jewish school commission, the quicker pace of assimilation, and the rise of anti-Semitism rendered insignificant the political differences at the provincial level between these two factions.
