“His dad didn’t think Canada should have fought the Nazis.”
Sort of . Actually he said he didn’t think it was Quebec’s war .
He was what Canadians called a “zombie”, those that had to be conscripted rather than volunteer . Pierre Trudeau was conscripted ,joined the Canadian Officers’ Training Corps and was then thrown out for lack of discipline.
And Quebec. They started screaming a different tune when the U boats entered the St Lawrence and bodies started washing up on the banks of the river.
The Pony mentions his Grandfather James Sinclair who was a RCAF pilot in North Africa, but never his father.
