No Refuge

New Jewish farm settlers arriving in Sommerfeld Colony, Oungre, Saskatchewan, 1928.
Jewish immigration to Canada steadily decreased from the late 1920s to the end of the Second World War. Many of the settlers and refugees who arrived were either directed by the government or voluntarily chose to travel to northern and remote areas of Canada to live and work. Although conditions in these rural agricultural or single-industry villages could be harsh, many Jewish settlers remained steadfast and committed to developing a strong community and local economy. One such settlement was the Sommerfeld Colony, at Oungre, Saskatchewan.
