Between 1869-1928, almost 90,000 'Home Children' children were brought to Canada from Great Britain during the child emigration movement. It was considered that 'pauper children' would have a better chance for a healthy, moral life in rural Canada, away from the urban slums of the larger industrial cities in England, and they were a source of labour.
