The People Who Came For A New Life: The Doukhobors
02/28/23 • 35 min

The Doukhobors came to Canada at the turn of the 20th century, and were welcomed with open arms by Canadians. However, as time went on, their communal living, pacifism and commitment to hard work led to Canadians viewing them with suspicion. Things were not helped when the Sons of Freedom came along.
