Abstract
A study of the Home of the Women's Protective (later Women's National) Immigration Society of Montreal, which opened in 1882 and was closed in 1917. Opened to aid female immigrants from the British Isles by a group of Protestant and Catholic women, the organization was opposed by a group of anti-feminist Protestant clergymen.
