Title
Sionisme de gauche, agriculturalisme et immigration juive au Canada au lendemain de la Grande Guerre
Abstract
The author notes that in the aftermath of the First World War, the Montreal Jewish community tried to convince the Canadian immigration authorities to open the country’s door to their fellow Russian Jews, struggling with a deadly civil war. To do so, the author points out, certain actors from within the Jewish community of Montreal argued for the agricultural potential of Jews. The author examines the ideologies that underpinned Canadian Jews’, English Canadians’, and French Canadians’ positions on Jewish agricultural immigration. He argues that this debate strongly influenced the relations between the Canadian Jewish community and Canadian authorities into the 1940s.
