- Abstract
- The Camps" is a cross-Canada journey into the past, present and future. In the fall of 2015, the crew of Armistice Films embarked upon an historical journey. Armed with professional cinema cameras, four film professionals set out to document the remains of all of the internment camps used during Canada's First National Internment Operations from 1914 to 1920. At the internment sites, the crew interviewed a variety of individuals who have either a direct or indirect tie to the Internment Operations. They interviewed several internee descendants, including those of Ukrainian, German and Hungarian descent. They interviewed scholars, political leaders, activists, an RCMP officer, the Chief of Brandon Police Services, The Chief of The Batchewana First Nation, Museum Curators, a former Park Warden and Sculptor John Boxtel. In "The Camps", we hear three languages English, French (including 2 fully Francophone episodes) and Ukrainian, and see equal representation of both men and women. ... They address the individual camp and how each interview subject is connected to the history the audience is learning about, and why it is still relevant today."--Ukrainian Canadian Congress website.

- Abstract
- "The purpose of circulating it especially among Americans of German ancestry is to bring closely to their attention the real issues which now confront the nation of which they are a component part, with the hope that the example of the writer may be an inspiration to this virile, intelligent, and prosperous portion of our people, and that it may perhaps be the means of helping them to see clearly that their first duty is to be positively loyal to the country which has welcomed them with such generous hospitality and which before the Great War, for one reason or another, they preferred to the land of their ancestors. In this fateful hour when millions of America's sons are offering their lives in defense of that freedom which men and women of all races and nationalities have sought and found under the Stars and Stripes, the whole nation looks hopefully to our fellow citizens of German lineage to stand by the country which in happier days they or their ancestors chose of their own free will to be their home and their children's homeland."
