The newly formed political party which is seeking a Fascist regime in Canada has attempted to enlist the Canadian war veterans in its movement, it was charged at the convention of the Canadian Legion in London by D. L. Harris, president and representative of the Jewish branch.

Mr. Harris named the newly formed Canadian Corps Association as the body which is trying to make dupes of the veterans. He declared that Fascism is rampant in Toronto.

“With the rise of Fascism in Europe and its known treatment of all minorities,” he asserted, “we do not want anything like that in Canada.”
