Abstract

The article focuses on the challenges faced by Mennonite immigrants in the 1920s when trying to leave the Soviet Union and migrate to Canada legally. It highlights the complex bureaucratic processes, including obtaining the right paperwork, dealing with changing regulations, and undergoing rigorous medical examinations. Despite a brief period when the door was open for Mennonite immigration to Canada, it eventually closed due to changing political landscapes and economic factors.
