Ontario's Dark Reformatory Past

I just watched the following video, aired on TVO last evening. It is the story of what transpired to a friend of mine, Velma Demerson, when she fell in love with a Chinese Canadian man and became pregnant with his child in the 1930's. Her book, "Incorrigible" recounts the entire case.
