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. In this 1on1, we speak to director Ryan Boyko about how we own the sins of our past and whether or not he thinks it could happen again.
