Description:

Interview with Frederick Snyder, a German lawyer who led a group of 150 immigrants to settle north of Winnipeg in 1927. Snyder discusses how they chose to come to Canada, his control over the 3500 acre co-operative farm, their hardships in clearing the land and cultivating their first crop, the decision to raise dairy cows during the Depression, and Snyder's battle to have milk declared a public utility in Manitoba. Snyder also reflects on a number of topics including: inflation today caused by moral pollution; eventual subdivision of community into individual farms; his retirement interests in philosophy and painting; his contact with Germany; and his Canadian identity.
