The Fog of War

Historian and journalist Mark Bourrie is the first researcher to gain access to all of the files of Canada’s World War II press censors: Nazi spies in Montreal and Ottawa. U-boat attacks in the St. Lawrence. Japanese balloon bombs drifting over the Rockies and onto the Canadian Prairies. Army mutinies in British Columbia and Ontario. Pro-Hitler propaganda in the mainstream Quebec press. Nazi spies landing on Canadian shores by raft after launching from submarines. These stories were expunged from the Canadian press in World War II, yet are still not part of the public memory. Journalist, editor, and author Mark Bourrie’s research will change the way you think about Canadain World War II.
