1) Between 1870 and 1924, 26 million immigrants came to the United States, with 1 in 4 Americans by 1920 having been born abroad. Many immigrants arrived through Ellis Island in New York or Angel Island in San Francisco to escape problems in their home countries and seek opportunity. 2) Immigrants faced challenges after arrival, such as finding housing and work in unfamiliar urban environments and facing prejudice from native-born Americans who believed immigrants lowered wages and were morally corrupt. 3) However, immigrants also found opportunities in America including jobs, education for their children, rights to vote, and chances to start businesses. Overall immigration was a major factor in America's growing urbanization and becoming a more diverse society.

Canada's changing population
This document discusses Canada's changing population in the late 19th and early 20th centuries due to increased immigration. It notes that after being elected in 1896, Prime Minister Laurier realized Canada needed more people to prosper. As a result, he launched an advertising campaign promoting immigration. However, not all Canadians welcomed immigrants, as many were ethnocentric and disliked outsiders. Eastern Europeans and Asians in particular faced discrimination. The document examines policies that discriminated against Chinese and Indian immigrants, such as the Chinese Head Tax and bans on immigration from those countries. It raises questions about whether today's government is responsible for past injustices against immigrants.
Immigration in the United States
Ellis Island and Angel Island were two major immigration processing centers in the United States that had both similarities and differences. Europeans primarily immigrated through Ellis Island in New York, where the process typically took a few hours to a day and involved physical exams and citizenship tests. In contrast, Angel Island in California processed thousands of Chinese immigrants under the Chinese Exclusion Act, and some detainees had to wait weeks or years to prove family ties before being allowed to enter or deported. Both islands gave health screenings and assessed immigrants' knowledge of American ideals before permitting entry to the country.
Ellis Island and Angel Island Experience
Immigrants came to the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries due to push factors like poverty, hunger, and religious persecution in Europe, as well as pull factors promising opportunity and jobs. They faced difficult journeys and conditions upon arrival, with third class passengers facing disease and hunger on ships. At Ellis Island, immigrants underwent health inspections with some denied entry. While many settled in urban areas and relied on ethnic communities for support, nativism grew alongside new immigrant populations, leading to discriminatory laws and quotas reducing immigration. Asian immigrants especially faced racism and exclusion acts.
Ellis island compressed
Ellis Island opened in 1892 and was the gateway for over 12 million immigrants to the United States. It was the nation's busiest immigrant inspection station between 1892 and 1954. Immigrants arriving at Ellis Island would undergo health inspections and interrogations to determine if they had any illnesses, criminal backgrounds, or other issues that would prevent them from legally entering the country. Over its years of operation, Ellis Island processed millions of immigrants from all over the world, with the majority coming from European countries like Italy and Ireland.

During the Laurier era from 1896-1914, Canada experienced significant political, social, and economic changes. Wilfred Laurier was elected prime minister in 1896 and relied on Britain for military protection. However, tensions grew as Britain pressured Canada to financially support its navy and send troops to fight in the Boer War. Domestically, Laurier struggled with tensions between English and French Canadians over language issues in schools. Meanwhile, Canada grappled with its identity and relationship with Britain as it began building its own navy and faced disputes with the U.S. over borders. Socially, women, Indigenous peoples, and Chinese immigrants faced discrimination and unequal treatment under the law.

Immigration and discrimination presentation
During WWI, immigration to Canada slowed significantly as it became difficult to immigrate from enemy countries. After WWI, unemployment increased and some Canadians blamed immigrants for social problems like job losses. The government limited immigration and certain groups like Chinese and Asian immigrants faced direct discrimination. The KKK also emerged in Canada in the 1920s targeting various immigrant groups. Overall immigrant discrimination increased in Canada during this period.

Roaring 20s Overview
The Roaring 20s brought cultural advancement, economic growth, and technological breakthroughs. Entertainment expanded with the rise of radio, movies, and sports. However, Prohibition in the US from 1920 to 1933 resulted in the growth of organized crime as gangsters smuggled alcohol and controlled speakeasies. Figures like Al Capone built powerful criminal empires before the law was finally repealed due to its harmful unintended consequences.
Canadian aboriginal issues
The document summarizes some key issues and events in Canadian Aboriginal history:
- The 1876 Indian Act assimilated Aboriginal people and placed them under government control on reserves. Residential schools operated from the 1870s-1980s and suppressed Indigenous culture and language.
- The 1969 White Paper proposed eliminating special status for Aboriginal people. This was opposed by Indigenous groups and led to increased activism.
- The 1973 Calder case recognized Aboriginal title. This initiated a comprehensive land claims process.
- The Berger Commission in 1974-1977 halted the proposed Mackenzie Valley pipeline due to environmental and Indigenous land rights concerns.
- The 1990 Oka crisis saw violent clashes over a land claim in Quebec and precipitated

Libya is a country in North Africa bordered by the Mediterranean Sea, Egypt, Sudan, Chad, Niger, Algeria and Tunisia.
7.1 history of immigration
Canada has a long history of immigration that began with colonization and continues today. In the late 19th century, immigration increased with the completion of the transcontinental railway and profitable farming opportunities. In the early 20th century, the government aggressively recruited European immigrants through policies like offering free land. Starting in the 1920s, racist policies severely restricted or banned immigration from Asia and limited numbers from other regions. After World War 2, immigration policies liberalized but still discriminated based on race until the 1960s-70s when a non-discriminatory points system was introduced and Canada adopted multiculturalism.
Canadian PMs from 1948 to 1984
Louis St. Laurent was Prime Minister of Canada from 1948 to 1957. His government saw prosperity and growth, including the development of infrastructure like the Trans-Canada Highway. Newfoundland joined Confederation under his leadership. John Diefenbaker then defeated the Liberals in 1957 and focused on national unity and helping vulnerable groups. Lester Pearson sought to improve French-English relations and introduced policies like Medicare, while adopting a new Canadian flag design. Pierre Trudeau became Prime Minister in 1968 and implemented official bilingualism to address Quebec concerns, eventually patriating the Canadian constitution with a Charter of Rights.
History Of Us Immigration Policy
The document provides a history of major US immigration policies and legislation from 1790 to present day. It outlines significant dates and details of laws that established immigration quotas, restricted certain ethnic groups, created a formal immigration system, and addressed illegal immigration. It also summarizes the current categories and goals of legal US immigration, which prioritizes family reunification, employment, and diversity.
Urbanization svik
Immigrants formed ethnic neighborhoods in places like New York City's Little Italy and Lower East Side in the late 1800s/early 1900s. While they recreated customs from their homelands, Americans questioned if they could adapt. Chinese immigrants also faced unfair treatment - they worked for low wages but white workers blamed them for lowered wages. This led to the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act, the first law to restrict immigration to the US by ethnicity which banned Chinese immigration for 10 years.
The Roaring Twenties - Chapter 3 SS11
1) In the early 1920s, Canada was in an economic depression following World War 1, with many veterans unable to find jobs and workers dissatisfied with low wages that did not keep up with rising costs of living.
2) Canadian workers began organizing unions to demand better conditions, taking inspiration from labor movements in Russia. A major general strike in Winnipeg in 1919 drew attention to social and economic issues facing workers.
3) By the mid-1920s, Canada's economy improved as industries like wheat, forestry, and mining began to boom, helped by investment from the United States. Urbanization also increased as people moved to cities.
A different canada
At the turn of the 20th century:
- Canada had its own government but still depended on Britain for foreign relations support, though Britain did not always act in Canada's best interests.
- Women, led by groups like the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, were campaigning for the right to vote and to address social issues like prohibition, child labor, and poverty.
- English-speaking and French-speaking Canadians had different attitudes towards Britain, with French Canadians less supportive of imperialism and more focused on language rights.
- Aboriginal peoples faced oppression through the Indian Act and residential school system, which sought to assimilate them into European culture and separate them from their traditions and families.
Immigration in the United States
The document provides a history of immigration to the United States from the 17th century to present day.

The document advocates for welcoming immigrants seeking freedom and opportunity in America, as many ancestors of current citizens once did.
Corey the Whitehouse
The White House was built between 1792 and 1800, taking 8 years to complete. It was designed by Irish architect James Hoban, who won a contest to design the presidential residence for the new U.S. capital in Washington D.C. The White House cost $232,371.83 to build and was constructed out of white painted Aquia sandstone. It is located where it is because that was the plan for the city designed by Pierre L'Enfant.
The 1960s & 1970s
The 1960s and 70s saw major social changes in Canada as values shifted after World War 2. The counterculture movement emerged among youth, rejecting mainstream society through protest music and styles. The women's movement also grew due to Friedan's book, seeking equal rights. Trudeau's government passed laws legalizing abortion and homosexuality. Quebec underwent a quiet revolution modernizing its economy and reducing church influence, strengthening Quebec nationalism and later separatism. Bilingualism became official policy to recognize French rights across Canada. The FLQ committed terrorist acts for separatism, culminating in the October Crisis kidnappings.
French-English Relations
The document discusses French-English relations and Quebec nationalism from the mid-20th century to late 1990s. It summarizes that Quebec underwent a period of rapid modernization known as the Quiet Revolution in the 1960s, seeking more autonomy. Two referendums in 1980 and 1995 on Quebec sovereignty both failed to pass. Attempts to amend the constitution to recognize Quebec as a "distinct society" through the Meech Lake and Charlottetown Accords also failed.
Civil Rights Questions
This document contains 13 multiple choice questions about US history and civil rights. The questions cover a range of topics including protests by disabled advocates in the 1970s influenced by civil rights marches, consequences of the civil rights movement like desegregation, the growth of the women's suffrage movement due to gender discrimination, and the Indian Tribal Justice Act which aimed to redress past oppression of Native Americans.

(2012) The Canadian Historical Experience (11 MB)
The document provides an overview of the Canadian historical experience from early European exploration and settlement to modern times. It discusses key events and periods that have shaped Canada's identity, including the French and British colonial periods, tensions between French and English communities, the American Revolutionary War, waves of immigration, the development of national policies like official bilingualism, and Canada's relationship with the United States. The overall theme is how Canada's history, with its mix of French, British, indigenous, and immigrant influences in North America, has led to its status as a distinct society from the United States.
The Development Of Cultural Nationalism
The development of cultural nationalism in Ireland in the 1890s was a reaction against modernization and a search for cultural identity. Constitutional nationalism had been associated with modernization, alienating the growing petty bourgeoisie class. Cultural nationalism provided an opportunity for women and lower middle classes to engage in politics. The Gaelic League, founded in 1893, successfully promoted the Irish language and culture as a way to develop a distinct Irish national identity and appeal to various classes and religions, amid the failure of constitutional nationalism and growth of the petty bourgeoisie class seeking cultural roots and political engagement.
Pragmatics final project

It also profiles some famous Hispanic Americans and businesses. In closing, it references some common misconceptions about Latinos in the US.
Immigration and the rise of cities 8.47
The document discusses factors that led to increased immigration to America in the 19th century. Mass potato crop failures in Ireland caused a famine that killed 750,000 people and led 2 million Irish to immigrate to the US, settling mostly in northeast cities due to poverty. Between 1845-1855, economic hardship and unrest caused nearly 1 million Germans to immigrate, many able to settle in midwest farmland. However, immigrants faced hostility from nativist groups who believed Americans' needs should come first and that immigrants were threats politically and to American culture. Nativists formed groups like the Know Nothing Party and in some cities, anti-Catholic riots broke out against Irish and German immigrants.

Traditional foods center around corn and beans, with influences from indigenous groups and Spanish colonizers. Family is very important culturally, though structure varies between nuclear families in urban areas and extended families in rural settings. Roman Catholicism is the predominant religion across the region.
Mexican Americans
Mexican Americans are the largest Hispanic group in the United States, making up over 20 million people. They face discrimination in areas like education, jobs, and housing due to factors like skin color and language differences. Mexican Americans rely heavily on traditional beliefs and folk healing practices. Common illnesses treated include susto (fright illness) and empacho (digestive blockage). Nurses must understand a patient's culture to provide effective care free of ethnocentrism.
Summer school history - american history

Key points include the origins and societies of Native Americans, European colonization of North America by Spain, France, and England, conflicts between the British and colonists leading to the Declaration of Independence in 1776, and the drafting of the Constitution in 1787 which established a strong federal government and Bill of Rights.
Irish immigration
Irish immigrants began coming to America in large numbers in the 1840s due to the potato famine and resulting poverty in Ireland. They faced difficult conditions on overcrowded ships during the journey and often lived in poor quality shanty towns with little money or resources upon arrival. While they faced discrimination and stereotyping, Irish immigrants eventually established communities and found work in areas like canals, railroads, and factories. As more generations were born in America, assimilated and gained opportunities, the social and economic status of Irish immigrants and their descendants significantly improved by the late 1800s and early 1900s.
The Mexico Culture
Mexican cuisine is based around corn and features dishes like tamales, tacos, burritos and gorditas. The most common spices used are chile powder, cumin, oregano and garlic.
Mexico is a multi-party democracy where the president serves a six-year term. Soccer is now the most popular sport, and bullfighting remains culturally significant.
The Day of the Dead is one of Mexico's most important holidays, celebrated over two days in early November. Families honor deceased loved ones by building alters and wearing bright costumes.

Business Problems and Solutions
During the late 1800s and early 1900s, workers were often treated unfairly by employers. Many immigrants filled low-paying industrial jobs like in factories and mines, working long hours for low wages under dangerous and unsanitary conditions.

Figures like "Mother" Jones led strikes and protests to improve conditions for workers.
Big Business
The transcontinental railroad led the United States to have over 160,000 miles of track, making railroad companies some of the first large corporations as people and businesses relied on them for travel and transport.
