Episode 2 - 1847: The Doctor and the Priest
Manage episode 406361542 series 1531807
In the summer of 1847, over 100,000 refugees from the Great Irish Famine poured into Canada, making their way up the St Lawrence River to Grosse Île, Québec, Montréal, and Toronto. Others arrived at Partridge Island, the quarantine station just outside the harbour of Saint John, New Brunswick. This is the story of two Irish Canadians — one in Toronto, and the other in Saint John — who tried to help as best they could, with tragic results.
