German Canadians were put into the camps to remove the "threat" that they posed on communities and were labeled "enemy aliens" by the Government and civilians. Once Germans were being slowly released form the grasp of the government they were aloud to start working and go find a job but it was continuingly hard for them and other minority groups to find jobs due to the labels they were given from wartime. Many companies wouldn't even hire Germans or other groups at all. -
During the summer of 1940, more than 3000 refugees (2,300 of which were Jews or Germans) came to Canada. They were originally settled in Prisoner of War camps. Because of the nervousness around Germans being in Canada, it led to many of them being falsely accused of spying and working for the German government. -
The Germans did not see much change as many people did not look at Germans as nice or welcoming people because of Nazi Germany. This is unfortunate because many of them who were fleeing the monstrosities in Germany were labeled Aliens and enemies .
