With Hardened Hands

"Cover of 'With Hardened Hands: A pictorial history of Portuguese immigration to Canada in the 1950s' by Manuela Marujo and Domingos Marques.

With Hardened Hands takes us back to the 50's, revealing events that led Canada to open her doors to the Portuguese. It pays tribute to those first "pioneers" who, through remarkable courage and hard work, opened the door to hundreds of thousands more each of whom would leave an unpromising future in Portugal for the prospect of a  better life in Canada.
