  OK, but why was it that 50,000 Mennonites decided to uproot themselves from Canada (having recently brave the Atlantic crossing to come here from Russia) to live elsewhere (in many cases, Mexico)?  One major reason: they couldn't educate their kids in their own schools, and didn't agree with how Canada's public schools taught them--religiously (at the time) and otherwise.  Interesting, too, that the Mennonites were...Christian.
