  • The Italian Colony at Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario
    The Italian Colony at Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario By Gerolamo Moroni [A report written by the Italian royal Attaché of Immigration, Girolamo Moroni, stationed at Montréal, Québec, Canada. The report was published in the Bolletino dell’Emigrazione in 1914. The Italian government published the Bolletino between 1907 and 1927 to show prospective immigrants what to expect throughout the world if they decided to immigrate. This report provides an in­depth look into the Italian community at Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario and the social and work conditions facing them. Included in this report are the Magpie and Helen iron mines to the north of Sault Ste. Marie. It is translated and edited by Russell M. Magnaghi.] Sault Ste. Marie is situated in the Algoma District in northern Ontario, between Lakes Huron and Superior. The city has approximately 12,000 inhabitants and including the suburbs of Steelton, Buckley, and Bay View, approximately 18,000. It is a small industrial city, with laborers working on the railroad, steel, paper and mechanized sawmills. The Italian colony is composed of approximately 3,000 permanent residents and between the spring and autumn 600­800 seasonal residents. The frst Italians arrived in 1895, but the great part came with the opening of the metallurgy industry in 1902. Our people come from Calabria, The Marches and Abruzzi, and Veneto, and a small number from other parts of the Kingdom [of Italy]. In the Italian colony there are no professionals; only one Italian [Catholic] priest; two contractors overseeing building, excavation and sewerage laborers. The Italians of this place have demonstrated a desire for an Italian physician, who would have small pharmacy, as they do not have a pharmacy here.
