    A Divide Between the

    Rich and the Poor


    38:09

    Watch the video clip A Nation of Cities and make notes


    on lifestyle changes and the class system as it existed in
    Canada in the early 1900s:

    The Wealthy of Canada


    enjoyed the finer things

    The Poor lived in squalor in


    tenement housing in the
    crowded city slums

    People worked hard to


    make ends meet and put
    food on the table for their
    families.

    And things were not much better for the people in the
    rural areas

    Lets make one last comparison


    Just for the shock-value

    A Wealthy Familys Parlour

    A Poor Familys Hovel
