Komagatu Maru factsRe: The Real Story Of The Komagata Maru, Terry Glavin, May 26. It was the common working people of British Columbia who were most strongly opposed to allowing the entry of large numbers of low-wage foreign labour. British Columbia was faced with the prospect of massive inflows of unskilled labourers from Asian countries prepared to work for far less than a living wage. It is noble of Justin Trudeau to apologize for the 1914 Komagau Maru incident, in which 376 (mostly) Sikhs were not allowed to disembark, and sent back to India. How could any reasonable person believe she didn’t send even one work-related email for a couple of months in 2009?
