The fonds consists of correspondence, 1930-1931, in which individuals describe their immigration and settlement in Canada. The immigrants had sent the letters to the "New Canadian" in the hope of winning the small prize the monthly offered for the best account it received of the immigrant experience. The letters, for the most part in the German language, are written by immigrants who arrived in Canada from the turn of the century to the mid-1920s.
