This research examines how national historical narratives help construct both how we see the past and how we interpret and act upon our present circumstances. This study focuses on Pier 21 as a site in Canada where immigration and Canadian history are taught and exhibited through the reconstruction of immigrant "experience". Between 1928 and 1971, Pier 21 was one of the major Canadian ports of entry for immigrants. In this thesis, I examine the Pier 21 exhibit and the institutional relations at work in its production and continual operation. I contend that the ways in which the museum represents itself, and is presented by the media, as well as how it represents immigration experience, shapes public understandings and definitions, and historicizes the Canadian nation. I argue that there is a disjuncture between the way the Pier 21 exhibit has been constructed within public discourse, and its actual project of representation.
