Hundreds of rare photographs and documents relating to the Greek immigrant experience in Canada have been collected by a small group of researchers at the University of York in Toronto.
The Greek-Canadian History Project (GCHP), led by Dr. Sakis Gekas and Christopher Grafos, is an initiative designed to identify, acquire, digitize, preserve, and provide access to these documents. These invaluable primary source materials reflect the experiences of Canada’s Greek immigrants and their descendants.
The priceless historical records are now housed at York University’s Clara Thomas Archives & Special Collections. After being processed, they will be available for students and researchers to use and enjoy.
