The Canadian Government has been urged by the North American Institute to immediately admit “oppressed people” from Europe to help in transporting them to Canada, and to guarantee the maintenance of many of them in Europe until such time as they can be brought to Canada.

The resolution also recommended the formation of a joint Christian-Jewish commission in Canada to prepare the fundamental principles of peace and post-war reconstruction.
