Title
An Irish Heart: How A Small Immigrant Community Shaped Canada
Abstract
The story of Montreal's Griffintown, first settled by refugees escaping Ireland's Great Hunger of the 1840s. Griffintown was a working class, predominately Irish neighbourhood for over a century. By the 1960s, most of Griffintown's Irish had moved on, and the old neighbourhood was almost all torn down, replaced today by highrise condos.
