Usages of yudayajin

戦せん争そう　の　後あと　に　たくさん　の　ユダヤ人じん　が　カナダ　に　来き　始はじめました。sensou no ato ni takusan no yudayajin ga kanada ni ki hajimemashita.

After the war, many Jewish people began coming to Canada.

Note: the subject marker が is more appropriate than は in this context. The subject of the sentence is たくさんのユダヤ人 (many Jewish people), and in this case, が is typically used because it is introducing new, non-contrastive information.
