20 Jul 1885 Jahr - Chinese Immigration Act
Beschreibung:
The Chinese Immigration Act reduces Chinese immigration to Canada following the completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Immigrants are charged a punitive head tax to enter the country. A virtual ban on Chinese immigration occurs between 1923 and 1947. The federal government apologizes for the head tax in 2006.
