Check out this great museum exhibit, last day October 6th, 2019, $5 per person.
This was the internment camp story in Canada .. Leon Trotsky was held at the Amherst camp for about three months and then released.. he had been apprehended in Halifax on a ship bound for Europe on his way to the Russian Revolution .. the communist jewish agitator must have had friends in high places in Canada because he was let loose for his mission from this internment camp .. there is nothing about this on the walls of the exhibit but one of the curators told me this when I asked about Leon in Amherst.. interesting.. httt://warmuseum.ca/travelling
