The Fascist system, “far ahead of anything yet conceived in Italy, Germany, Portugal or elsewhere,” will be spread across Canada in 1938, Adrian Arcand, leader of the Canadian Nazis, declared in an interview here with the Canadian Press.
“From one end of Canada to the other great rallies will be held, in Montreal, in Toronto and Winnipeg, to spread the gospel of the National Social Christian party, as it is known in Quebec province, and the Canadian Nationalist Party in the west,” Arcand asserted.
He painted a bright future for the party, which he claims has at least 80,000 members in Montreal alone and many more in the west, “and you may say none of them are armed,” he added.
