SS. St Louis
The SS St. Louis is a ship that was filled by jewish people who were mostly of a young age, their were on this ship to escape the wrath of the nazis, Canada declined the ship to allow the people on board to join Canada and sent them back to Germany. I belive that this is important because it shows that at some points of time we weren't seen as very welcoming and aceppting people that we are now. -
