Recently, violence has broken out between land owners and squatters in a remote part of southern Costa Rica. Westcott interviews some Canadians who have had confrontations with squatters and some of the jailed squatters. Dr. Tsvi Nussbaum, a New York physician and survivor of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, believes that he is the boy in the famous photograph of the child in the Warsaw Ghetto. Jim Reed interviews Nussbaum, his relatives in Toronto, historian Michael Marrus and archivist Mark Web in New York City. Some Jewish groups have accepted Nussbaum's claim but some historians refuse to consider it at all. Bill Cunningham reports on the struggle of Xue Yu, a Chinese woman who fell in love with student Jeffrey de Fourestier and married him. She wants to be allowed to leave China and move to Canada to be with her husband.Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
