McMurtry
"'Captive Canada' is a hair-raising but richly documented
historical profile of what has long been kept under wraps
–
Canada's domestic history of attacks on poor, foreign-born,
working-class and politically deviating people who are innocent of all
wrongdoing but what is projected onto them by official propaganda. Those
suspecting the worst of Canada's junior-imperialist actions of mass persecution
and detention will find the repressed facts here
–
from Canada's pro-Nazi Ukrainian right joining with state
forces to imprison thousands, to the imperialist anti-communism of the CCF/NDP
hero J.S.Woodsworth and descendants, all of them oozing self-righteous cant.
"Sanders uniquely exposes 'the captivating mass psychosis' which sweeps across
Canada again and again to the present day but is usually silenced in the public
record."
