Survivors of Socialism

It’s not uncommon to hear Canadian-born politicians, university professors and activists speak fondly of socialism and communism.

Yet, why is it that people who have actually lived in such regimes want nothing to do with them?

SecondStreet.org’s Survivors of Socialism project includes interviews with people who came to Canada from socialist and communist regimes, as well as conversations with experts, a policy brief and more.

Most importantly, we asked Canadians who fled such regimes – are there any policies in Canada that concern you as they remind you of the country you left?
