Les réactions montréalaises à l'épidémie de typhus de 1847
|
| Abstract |
An examination of the reactions of the civil, medical and Catholic religious and charitable organizations in Montreal in 1847 to the typhus epidemic brought to the city by Irish immigrants fleeing the potato famine in their country. The author concludes that the government authorities, both municipal and colonial, were ill prepared for this health emergency, but the citizens of the city, although insecure, did not react violently against the newcomers.
