  • IV: Construction
    IV: Construction The Campaign Organization had raised a sufficient number of pledges. There remained, however, a great deal of work to be done before the Jewish hospital could open its doors, including the transformation of pledges into payments, the finding of suitable land, the construction and equipment of the hospital, and the hiring of an able and competent staff. Before those tasks could be undertaken, it was necessary to establish the post- campaign hospital leadership. Fortunately, much of this had been looked after by the end of the campaign. On August 9, 1929, Allan Bronfman, Michael Hirsch and Ernest G.F. Vaz had petitioned the provincial government for a charter so that the Jewish Hospital Campaign Committee could legally hold property. The government granted this charter, making the hospital committee a corporation, on September 5, 1929. On September 25, the legal formalities having been completed, the "Jewish Hospital Campaign Committee Inc." held its first official general meeting. Elections took place and resulted in the appointment of the following men as Directors: Allan Bronfman, Michael Hirsch, Ernest G.F. Vaz, Samuel Bronfman, Charles B. Fainer, Morris Ginsberg, Robert Hirsch, Abraham H. Jassby, David Kirsch, Joseph Levinson Sr., Michael Morris, Harry Reubins, Hyman M. Ripstein, Alderman Joseph Schubert, Isaac Silverstone, Louis Solomon, Abraham Moses Vineberg and Dr. Max Wiseman. The Directors held their first meeting on October 7 and then chose Allan Bronfman as President of the Board. Other officers appointed included: Michael Hirsch (Chairman of the Board of Directors), Samuel Bronfman (Vice-President), Joseph Levinson Sr. (Treasurer), Robert Hirsch (Secretary) and Ernest Vaz (Executive Secretary).

  • 1: Montreal and the Jewish Community in the 1920'S
    1: Montreal and the Jewish Community in the 1920's Montreal in the 1920's was a sharply divided city, both socially and culturally. Rifts separated the wealthy from the poor, uptowner from East-ender, anglophone from fran- cophone, immigrant from native-born, and Gentile from Jew. From its origins in 1929, the Jewish General Hospital would contribute substantially to the bridging of these differences and to the promotion of greater harmony in efforts for the benefit of all. Both Montreal's population and that of the Jewish community within it had been growing rapidly for some time. Census figures reveal that the number of people living in Montreal, after having more than doubled since the turn of the century, increased from 618,506 in 1921 to 818,577 ten years later. Since much of this increase resulted from im- migration, a great deal of which was Jewish, Jews quickly rose to prominence as the third largest ethnic group in Montreal. After a gradual growth in the old, but small, Jewish community to some 8,100 persons in 1901, by 1921 its numbers had soared to 51,287, despite the interruption of immigration during the war years. Thus, in 1921 Jews accounted for a full seven percent of Montreal's population. Montreal grew in more than population during the first decades of the twentieth century and began to assume aspects of its present appearance. Industry, already the heart of Montreal's economy, continued to expand once the post-war recession was over. This trend was particularly visible in traditional industrial sectors - clothing, textiles, tobacco, and iron and steel products - as well as in some newer sectors, such as electrical appliances and oil products.

  • Immigration and Charity in the Montreal Jewish Community Before 1890*
    Immigration and Charity in the Montreal Jewish Community before 1890* Gerald TULCHINSKY** Organized in 1863 to provide temporary assistance to indigent Jewish immigrants, the Young Men's Hebrew Benevolent Society of Montreal was the first and most important Jewish philanthropic organization in Canada. The records reveal, however, that while Jewish indigency was minor and while the Society included many members of the city's two established synagogues, the organization felt overwhelmed by its responsibilities. When Jewish immigration to Canada during the 1880s more than doubled the community's size, the Society did little to increase significantly the scope of its work. The financial crisis arising from the immigration of 1882-83 was met only with sizeable support from Montreal's Protes­ tants and London Jewish agencies, and the purchase of a Montreal Jewish house of refuge in 1890 was made possible by a grant from the Paris-based Baron Maurice de Hirsch. Far from welcoming Jewish immigration, supporters of Montreal's leading Jewish philanthropy resented the burdens imposed on them and, on occasion, even attempted unsuccessfully to stern the flow. Mise sur pied en /863 pour apporter une aide ternporaire aux immigrants juifs dans le besoin, le Young Men's Hebrew Benevolent Society of Montreal a ete le tout premier et est demeure le plus important organisrne philanthropique juif au Canada. Les archives revelent neanrnoins que cet organisrne s'est senti ecrase sous le poids des responsabilites et ce, a une epoque oil plusieurs rnernbres des deux synagogues de Ia ville en faisaient partie et oil /'indi­ gence etait, de fait, peu repandue chez les Juifs.

    II: The Dream The foundation of the Jewish General Hospital was truly a community effort. The resources required for this important link in the institutional development of the Jewish community of Montreal were pooled by Jews of all backgrounds and socio-economic levels. Painstaking efforts on the part of some, the gift of a few hours of spare time on the part of others, and a willingness by all to donate to a more-than-worthy cause, permitted the establishment of this life-saving monument to Jewish generosity. The credit for the initial impetus, however, must be attributed to a much smaller group of far-seeing and public- minded individuals who, when aware of the growing need for hospital facilities, recognized this as a call to action. The first apparent attempt to found a Jewish-run general hospital in Montreal was by Dr. Hyman Lightstone, the honorary physician of the Baron de Hirsch Institute, and Dr. Norman Viner. In 1907 these two young doctors attempted to raise enough money to establish a hospital so that greater opportunities might be available to Jewish prac- titioners. Although well meaning, they simply did not have the resources or time to carry out their aims effectively. In 1959 Dr. Viner recalled how: Each of us with a little notebook in his hand, began to canvas our wealthier compatriots, requesting the hoped for donors to sign for $1,000 and $2,000 towards the erection of a hospital and correspondingly, $100 or $200 towards the annual maintenance. I wish I had those two little notebooks today as a footnote to our communal history.
