I, too, still have all the documents, including the Landed Immigrant card,
letters (or directives) from Sackville House telling us what we could and
could not take, and the remnant of the large brown envelope (wartime paper)
that held all this. I even have the train ticket and sleeping car tickets -
one way, Halifax to Saskatoon and, of course, the famous Cook Book, sadly
without it's cover! If I am ever able to find someone to scan this stuff
for me I will get it on line. Joan Reichardt.
