A significant number of Americans settled in Canada during the 1920s, but far fewer than those who arrived between 1910-1920. Advertising techniques developed in Sifton's day no longer worked well, it was reported in 1924. Only 15,800 settlers headed for Canada that year. Double that number left in 1928 and again in 1929. But the Great Depression began later that year. In 1930, all Canadian emigration offices in the United States were closed. |
