St. Patrick's Day

Many Irish settlers came to Canada as refugees fleeing an oppressed, impoverished land. They helped shape the society we live in today.

Many of Canada’s prime ministers, from John Thompson to Brian Mulroney to Justin Trudeau, had or have Irish blood in their veins. They spoke English, like the British Protestant settlers of Upper Canada, but many were Catholic, like the French in Quebec. The Irish were among the first Europeans to set foot on what would become Canadian land. The Irish both dispossessed and were themselves dispossessed.

Irish American pride is at the heart of the parade tradition — and immigration is a deeply rooted part of that history. Sympathy for the Irish once opened up meaningful access to others around the world to come to the United States. That the Irish didn’t seem alien — that they were White and English speaking — played a role in this connection. All they wanted, the Irish prime minister Enda Kenny said in a St. And a decade later in 2017, newspapers reported on a community of some 50,000 undocumented Irish immigrants, Such an argument served their purposes, of course, because issuing more visas to the Irish would help create immigrant “diversity” at the time.

As more Jews, Italians and Eastern Europeans arrived at the turn of the century, policymakers began to write racial and ethnic discrimination into the immigration laws to ensure white dominance.
