On October 28, 2025, an important event called Canada, Land of Refuge: Polish Orphans of Tengeru and the 85th Anniversary of the Deportation to Siberia was held at Library and Archives Canada. The documentary filmmaker Myra Dziama attended this event to share her film Childhood DENIED. It tells the heartbreaking story of the Tengeru orphans using old footage and the story from a child’s point of view.
Alongside her, professor and author Lynne Taylor, who also took part in the film, spoke about the challenges faced by these children and their incredible resilience. After the presentation, there was an emotional question-and-answer session, where the audience engaged deeply with the film’s themes and shared their own stories. This event highlighted the importance of remembering the history of these children and their journey to safety and freedom.
Standing side by side at Library and Archives Canada, everyone is united by a collective commitment to preserving the memory of the Polish children deported during the war. The image reflects both the solemn weight of history and the strength of a community determined to honor the resilience and legacy of the Tengeru orphans.
