Summary:  "For more than one million people, Pier 21, a warehouse in Halifax, was where their Canadian story began. Join host Hana Gartner in this remarkable tribute to the Canadian Immigrant experience as we look back at the more than 50 ears when Pier 21 opened its door and a nation walked in. From the stateless and dispossessed, to British war brides and orphans, to refugees from places Canadians could not even imagine-the start immigration shed in Halifax Harbour was the gateway to Canada and a new life, Pier 21 stands a s a testament to this chapter in our nation's history. The refurbished warehouse is now an extraordinary museum and a lasting part of our heritage. In this hour-long documentary produced by CBC-TV news journalists from across the country, we take a look at today's immigrant experience and look back at the history of pier 21. We begin with the remembrances using photographs and archival footage, from people on whose lives Pier 21 had a lasting impact. The spectrum Canadian Immigration is then shared as we hear about the experiences of those who settled in other parts of Canada. We also explore the new realities faced b recent newcomers"--Container. Genre:  DVDs. Other authors:  Gartner, Hana. Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
