520	0		_a"It is the story of the Canadian reaction to the Armenian genocide. It explores the Canadian reaction to atrocities perpetrated on the Armenian people from the late nineteenth century to the 1920s. The manuscript will convey the close links religious Canadians felt toward the Christian Armenian people of the Near East, and will reveal the many efforts they undertook to send relief to genocide-surviving Armenians. The Canadian reaction to the Armenian genocide was substantial, especially given the seeming distance between the two peoples, both geographically and culturally. These pages attempt to explain the objectives behind their motivation to do so. The book is particularly useful for those who have an interest in the topics of genocide or human rights studies, Canadian missionary involvement abroad and religious movements in Canada, and the early years of Canada's Department of External Affairs. The book presents documentation relating to Canada's reaction to the Armenian people between 1880 and 1923, available for viewing in one concise package. It includes information selected from government documents, Canadian newspapers and magazines available at Library and Archives Canada, government papers from the Archives of Ontario, material from a collection of municipal and university Ontario archives, as well as other articles, photographs, and illustrations from the time period in question available online or from various other sources."
