Breaking the colour barrier in baseball in Canada
Achievements of Vincent Churchill (Manny) McIntyre often overlooked in the province where he got his start
“Seventy-five years ago, a Fredericton man became the first Black Canadian to be offered a professional baseball contract. But to this day, the Canada's Sports Hall of Fame inductee remains relatively unknown in his home province. Vincent Churchill McIntyre, known to most as Manny, signed his name on a contract just one year after Jackie Robinson broke the colour barrier in the United States.” https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-b...ered-1.5890071
