A Ukrainian Canadian WW1 story of courage—dream, resist, escape
Benefit screenings for humanitarian aid for Ukraine & Ukrainian refugees
“Oh Canada, land of hope and promise, how you use and deceive us.”– Nestor
Montreal, May 2022 – Acclaimed Montreal playwright/actor/musician Norman Nawrocki blends Canadian history, emigration, racism, wartime hysteria, Ukrainian folkloric medicinal rituals, music and legend together with family memoire into this compelling tale about hope, courage and resistance. Nawrocki wrote, directed and performs in the play, with filmed appearances by his Vancouver-based sister Vivian. The eye-opening Run Nawrocki Run! Escape from Banff Prison runs from June 20-July 4 on Nawrocki’s YouTube channel. Tickets are free, with donations to Fundacja Folkowisko Foundation gratefully appreciated.
The 40-minute multimedia production brings to light the little-known but shamefully true WW1 incarceration and exploitation of 9,000 mostly Ukrainian Canadian immigrants in forced labour camps across Canada. In Run Nawrocki Run! Escape from Banff Prison, Nestor, an unemployed Ukrainian Canadian citizen, is nabbed by the police, imprisoned and forced to do slave labour in a federal concentration camp near Banff Alberta. Despite the brutal, tortuous conditions, he rebels, dreams and conspires to escape. His Baba (grandmother), a folk healer in Ukraine, works her magic to help him. This was Canada’s first coast-to-coast internment operation; June 20 honours the anniversary of its end and is also World Refugee Day.
Nawrocki wrote Run Nawrocki Run! Escape from Banff Prison because of all the stories told and untold passed down through his family about the discrimination, suffering, humiliation, deprivation and misery that they endured for decades, simply for being Ukrainian. “I did this play to honour my Baba and my Dido; all the generations of my family, known and unknown. I created this piece to inform and educate the public about this terrible injustice in the hope that people think about not only the past, but also the present and future; the situation of immigrants, migrants, refugees and others, and how we can avoid repeating this violation of fundamental human rights,” he said.
"One day we're citizens living free, and then we're enemies and aliens. Overnight, everything changes." -- Nestor
The story is particularly personal for Nawrocki. A fan wrote to him after finding his family name on a list of Canadian civilian internees from WW1. After some research, Nawrocki discovered that three distant family members from both his father’s and mothers’ side were imprisoned in Alberta between 1915 and 1920. Run Nawrocki Run! Escape from Banff Prison pays tribute to one of those relatives who successfully escaped from Castle Mountain in Banff National Park, the most inhumane of the 24 internment camps. “I wanted to talk about his courage, his fortitude and his temerity to think about and execute an escape. I salute him, and sincerely hope I have honoured his life as a person of worth, and dare I say, a heroic figure,” said Nawrocki.
The play is also a joyous call to rebellion. Nestor, prisoner of war #158, is inspired and inspires, and despite all the odds, he never loses hope. He demonstrates what’s possible; how to find the courage within us all to work with others for our collective freedom.
The show was filmed live in Montreal’s historic Gaston-Miron Building, with footage from Rawdon, Quebec, Banff and Vancouver. This is the third in Nawrocki’s trilogy of Ukrainian-Polish-Canadian plays based on his own family history, with Ukrainians, Pelicans & the Secret of Patterson Lake and Eviction? Dog’s Blood!! Nick Zynchuk & Montreal’s Red Plateau, 1933.
Run Nawrocki Run! Escape from Banff Prison is written, performed and directed by Norman Nawrocki with music written and performed by siblings Norman & Vivian Nawrocki; videography by Naomi Silver-Vézina; visuals by Joyce Valbuena; sound by Gregory Anderson Smith; and lighting design by James Douglas.
Norman Nawrocki is an internationally acclaimed Montréal-based author, playwright, actor, violinist, cabaret artist, educator and producer. He has written, staged and toured over 20 theatre and cabaret creations since 1986; his original plays address both historical and contemporary issues of social justice. He has authored 14 books of poetry, short fiction and a novel (with translations in French and Italian), and released over 60 albums of music and spoken word, both solo and with his diverse bands. Pre-pandemic he toured Canada, the US and Europe. He also records and performs with his sister as the East European music duo, The Nawrockis. linktr.ee/normannawrocki

WHITE SHADOWS is an installation from OH CANADA, seen for the first time at the Turchin Center for the Visual Arts. Maruschak created these works to trace the presence of others. These almost life size, blurry and indiscernible photographs are like palimpsests of the early immigrants to Canada and those imprisoned at Canadian World War One internment camps. Maruschak introduces us to them using their faces, eyes, hands and the places they inhabited. They are unknow to us and as we discover them they move to inhabit our memories.
They hang from the atrium ceiling, floating silk panels, like echoes or vibrations. Installed so as to immerse visitors, they fray the boundary between the audience and the work, between the self and the other, between the past and now. They are white, as if white noise, easy to forget, ignore. With movement they enter and disappear from our reality as do memories. Maruschak invites the audience to sit among the panels and forge new relationships with the past and the world around us.
Maruschak is a grant recipient from the First World War Internment Recognition Fund and her work on OH CANADA is sponsored by the Fund.

Semchuk highlights Canada's internment operations during the First World War, in which many immigrants from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Germany, and the Ottoman Empire were unjustly imprisoned as enemy aliens.
Semchuk describes how lives and society have been shaped by acts of legislated racism and helps people understand the cross-cultural and intergenerational consequences of Canada's first internment camps.
We're excited to announce the theatrical release of THAT NEVER HAPPENED in select cities across Canada over the course of the coming weeks.

THAT NEVER HAPPENED reveals the story of Canada's first national internment operations between 1914 - 1920, when over 88,000 people were forced to register and more than 8,500 were wrongfully imprisoned in internment camps across Canada, not for anything they had done but because of where they came from. In 1954, the public records were destroyed and in the 1980s a few brave men and women began working to reclaim this chapter in history and ensure future generations would know about it.

The book launch of Bohdan Kordan’s No Free Man: Canada, the Great War, and the Enemy Alien Experience will take place at the Ukrainian Federation Hall, 405 Ave, Fairmount O, Montreal, QC on Thursday, March 23rd at 7:00 pm. The launch is part of a national speaking tour that will include presentations in Toronto, Montreal, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Calgary, Victoria, and Ottawa.
Approximately 8,000 Canadian civilians were imprisoned during the First World War because of their ethnic ties to German, Austria-Hungary, and other enemy nations. Although not as well-known as the later internment of Japanese Canadians during the Second World War, these incarcerations played a crucial role in shaping debates about Canadian citizenship, diversity, and loyalty. Tracing the evolution and consequences of Canadian government policy towards immigrants of enemy nationality, No Free Man is a nuanced work that acknowledges both the challenges faced by the Government of Canada as well as the experiences of internees and their families.
Bohdan Kordan gives particular attention to the ways in which the political and legal status of enemy subjects configured the policy and practice of internment and how this process – magnified by the challenges of the war – affected the broader concerns of public order and national security. Placing the issue of internment within the wider context of community and belonging, Kordan further delves into the ways in which wartime turbulence and anxieties moulded public attitudes towards the treatment of enemy aliens. He concludes that Canada’s leadership failed to protect immigrants of enemy origin during a period of intense suspicion, conflict, and crisis. Framed by questions about government rights, responsibilities, and obligations, and based on extensive archival research, No Free Man provides a systematic and thoughtful account of Canadian government policy towards enemy aliens during the First World War.

Call for Proposals – Civilian Internment in Canada: Histories and Legacies
Winnipeg, June 17-19, 2015 Over the past four decades, the topic of wartime civilian internment in Canada has received considerable attention from scholars, activists, former internees, their descendants, and a host of others concerned with raising awareness and, in many instances, seeking redress. The result has been, among other outcomes, a dynamic body of information – both scholarly and popular. Click here to read the full details (PDF). |

Announcing CTO – The One Hundred Plaques Across Canada Initiative To mark the 100th anniversary of Canada's first national internment operations of 1914-1920, the Ukrainian Canadian Civil Liberties Foundation (www.ucclf.ca) will be unveiling 100 plaques on Friday, 22 August 2014, the 100th anniversary of the War Measures Act. This initiative, the CTO (“One Hundred”) project, enjoys the financial support of the UCCLF and of the Endowment Council of the Canadian First World War Internment Recognition Fund (www.internmentcanada.ca). All 100 plaques will be unveiled at 11 am (local time) in Ukrainian, Croatian, Serbian, German, and Hungarian churches and cultural centres, as well as in local and regional museums and other public venues, creating a "wave" of unveilings, moving from east to west, from coast to coast. Dr Lubomyr Luciuk, the CTO project leader, said: "Beginning in 1994, the Ukrainian Canadian Civil Liberties Association (www.uccla.ca) began placing historical markers to recall the internment operations, hoping to eventually have a plaque at each of the 24 camp sites. We started with Kingston's own Fort Henry, the location of Canada’s first permanent internment camp. Over the course of some 20 years our volunteers and supporters have made sure each internment camp location has been marked. The CTO project builds on UCCLA's foundational work. These plaques will hallow the memory of all of the victims of the internment operations and help educate our fellow Canadians about a little-known episode in Canada’s national history. That fulfils the mandate of the Canadian First World War Internment Recognition Fund and of the UCCLF. I want to add that this is the first time in Canadian history that any community has attempted to unveil 100 historical plaques from coast to coast at the same (local) time. This couldn’t happen without the enthusiastic support of hundreds of volunteers in 100 communities across the country, from Amherst, Nova Scotia to Nanaimo, British Columbia, and Grand Prairie, Alberta to Val D’Or, Quebec to name but a few. We’re also very grateful to our Patriarch, the two Metropolitans, the national executive of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress, the representatives of the other affected communities and many of our internee descendants, for their help. We’re calling on people to set aside 11 am (local time) on Friday, 22 August 2014 so that they can join us in witnessing a plaque unveiling in their own community or region. Be there to remember, and to learn." |
