Abstract

This study has proven to be of particular interest because it is concerned with education in its broadest sense. The problem of the re-settlement of displaced persons in Canada is one of rehabilitation of lives which have undergone unusual strain and unnatural experiences. When we invite displaced persons to settle here we undertake the obligation of so providing for their re-education and for their adaptation to Canadian life that they will become useful and happy citizens. This study has inevitably turned its attention towards many and different aspects of the background of these displaced persons and of the problems which face them on becoming established here in Canada.
