 abstract = {It is not surprising that the child immigrants went to work when they came to Canada. They had worked when they were very young in their own families in Britain, and they had worked for neighbours, for distant relations and for their guardians in institutions. Naturally they would also work when older in Canadian households that sheltered them without claiming kin or community.But if their work responsibilities were unexceptional for children of the labouring poor, and though their position as household rather than family members was a common one in their time, these British youngsters’ status as aliens did},
