Forced Internment of Ukrainians by Canadian Government During World War I [Radio]

As we posted yesterday, Lubomyr Luciuk appeared on Chicago Public Radio’s World View radio show to discuss Ukrainian Internment during WW1:

It is common knowledge that the U.S. government put Japanese-Americans into internment camps during World War II.  But few know that the Canadian government forced Ukrainians and other Europeans into interment camps during World War I.
We hear from Lubomyr Luciuk, Professor of Politics and Economics at the Royal Military College of Canada in Kingston, Ontario. His current project is the Canadian First World War Internment Recognition Fund,established to support projects that remind Canadians of a dark episode in their history.

The show is available to listen to below:

The Great Hunger (National)

Download MP3

CBC Radio – Ideas: In Ukraine in 1932 and 1933 there was a different kind of famine – the holodomor, “death by starvation”: an expropriation of the harvest, during which perhaps 8 million died.

Philip Coulter went to Ireland and Ukraine to ask some questions about what happens to a society when the great hunger is over. What has changed, how do people look at each other, how do they look at themselves? And how does such an event ripple down through history, its deep currents shaping the lives of later generations.
