jewish homes: On May 13, 1939, four months before the start of the Second World War, the luxury liner set out from Hamburg for a two-week transatlantic voyage to Havana, where the refugees hoped to live in peace, according to CTV. These were the elite. Louis who were escaping Nazi Germany were rejected by Ottawa, and forced back to Europe, where 254 passengers were killed in death camps. The cream of European Society, Canadian historian Irving Abella told CTV News. Only six months before, German Nazis had destroyed synagogues, Jewish homes and businesses in a ruthless wave of hate known as Kristallnacht, or Night of Broken Glass, which littered German streets. But they were all Jews. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
