Chinese Immigration: Remembrance Day

Corporate Canada Dept: The CPR is no different. It has taken many steps to acknowledge the contribution of its early workers and their sacrifices, most recently on Sunday at Craigellachie, with a major donation to digitize Chinese immigration historical documentation, which Remington acknowledges way down in his story, according to Calgary Herald. For many years, the CPR has stopped all its trains for a two-minute silence on Remembrance Day, it holds an annual service to remember its own employee war dead, and on Sunday, made a major contribution to the Military Families Fund which helps put that excellent cause on the agenda of corporate Canada and instead of Robert Remington's piece being about an extraordinary success story, it meandered after a picayune complaint from one individual identified as a Last Spike historian. Any large enterprise that started 125 years ago will have some warts about treatment of workers given prevailing conditions in the 1880s. The CPR has a first-rate track record as a supporter and cheerleader for humanitarian causes, such as food banks through its holiday trains and its stalwart support of Canada's military. As reported in the news.
