Episode 3 – Picture Brides

from Sounds Japanese Canadian To Me · host Nichola Ogiwara

Picture brides were the early twentieth-century's version of extreme online dating. Japanese men living in Canada would exchange pictures with a Japanese woman back in Japan. Once a match was struck, the woman would marry the man by proxy in Japan and then sail to Canada to meet her husband for the very first time. Talk about intense.
