History of Early Indigenous Peoples in Newfoundland and Labrador

According to Indigenous oral histories in Newfoundland and Labrador, Indigenous peoples have lived in this territory since time immemorial. According to archaeology, the history of early Indigenous peoples in Newfoundland and Labrador begins at least 9,000 years ago. Archaeological cultures are defined by archaeologists based upon material culture, sustenance practices, Indigenous oral histories and other aspects of how people lived. These definitions do not necessarily align with how Indigenous peoples in the past and present identify themselves. Archaeologists organize early Indigenous peoples into three main groups. They are the First Nations Archaeological Cultures, Paleo-Inuit Archaeological Cultures and Inuit Archaeological Cultures. Each group developed unique tools and subsistence practices, while coastal and inland groups shared notable similarities.

History of Labour Migration to Canada

Canada’s economic development has relied upon the labour and economic contributions of thousands of immigrant and migrant workers. (See also Economic Immigration to Canada; Immigration to Canada.) These workers came from a multitude of countries and worked a variety of jobs. Many of these workers would also ultimately settle in Canada. This labour and settlement pattern, however, is changing due to Canada’s temporary labour migrant programs. (See also Canada’s Temporary Foreign Worker Programs.)

Canada and the Holocaust

The Holocaust is defined as the systematic persecution and murder of 6 million Jews and 5 million non-Jews, including Roma and Sinti, Poles, political opponents, LGBTQ people and Soviet prisoners of war (POWs), by Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945. Jews were the only group targeted for complete destruction. Nazi racial ideology considered them subhuman. Though Jewish Canadians did not experience the Holocaust directly, the majority endured anti-Semitism in Canada. Jewish Canadians were only one generation removed from lands under German occupation from 1933 to 1945. They maintained close ties to Jewish relatives in those lands. These ties affected the community’s response to the Holocaust. There was, for instance, a disproportionate representation of Jews in the Canadian armed forces. Jewish Canadians were also heavily involved in postwar relief efforts for displaced persons and Holocaust survivors in Europe.
