  • Resumen

  • This week, Kate talks about the Freeman family who came from Leeds, England to the Haliburton area. They brought with them little social graces that brought a taste of home for the pioneer family. Plus, Paul tells the story of how cynical eugenics started to promote birth control in Canada in the early 1900's. On the other hand was Dorothea Palmer. She was an altruistic social worker who was counselling poor women with large families on birth control but was charged with distributing birth control information contrary to the Criminal Code. She was caught in the middle between the eugenics movement trying to manipulate the system, and providing birth control information for educational reasons. Regardless, she was commited for trial and was potentially facing 2 years in jail.
