The History of Chinese Exclusion Laws in Canada, Part 2

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 49! In this episode, we continue sharing about the Chinese Exclusion Laws in Canada. We discuss the different politicians who promoted exclusion as well as the people and groups that helped lead to the end of the exclusion laws.  Yes, there were several groups and individuals who fought against exclusion laws even before they passed. And their work helped lead to the ending of the Chinese Exclusion Laws in 1947. Immigration for Chinese improved after that, but things didn't really change for Chinese immigrants until Canada enacted immigration reform in the 1960s. We'll talk all about that. We begin the episode with some celebrations and we close it out with a new recurring segment called "What I Find Annoying" where we talk about Uncle Roger.
