The “Memories of Small Arms: Their Stories” captures the stories and memories of men and women who worked at the Small Arms Limited factory in Lakeview, Mississauga during the Second World War.

Please click on the links below to find oral history transcripts, articles, as well as images & memorabilia from each individual’s time working at the Small Arms Limited.

This project would not be possible without the generous support of the Community Foundation of Mississauga and the Hazel McCallion Fund for Arts, Cultural and Heritage.  A big thanks as well to Sanborg Productions (our production partner) who shot the footage and took the professional photos for us.
