  • Summary

  • This week, Kate has the story of a teacher in a one-room, multiple grade, pioneer era school. It wasn't always easy. Plus, Paul has the story anti-semitism in Lower Canada (Quebec) in the early 1800's and The Hart Affair. Ezekial Hart was a successful businessman who developed a passion for politics and won a provincial legislative seat in a Trois-Riviere election - twice. The legislature refused to let him participate because of anti-semitism, and Ezekial was expelled both times. Ezekial returned to his hometown where he became active in lobbying for equal rights for Jews.
