That Canada should desire to restrict immigration from the Orient is regarded as natural, that Canada should remain a white man’s country is believed to be not only desirable for economic and social reasons but highly necessary on political and national grounds.1 After losing his seat in 1911, King did Liberal Party lecture tours. Then, when WWI broke out, he avoided the draft by moving to the US and working for J.D.Rockefeller Jr. (1914-18). (JDR Sr., an oil tycoon/robber baron, was America’s first billionaire.) As the Rockefeller’s labour consultant, King was paid the 2020 equivalent of $405,000 per year. King’s job was to helped JDR Jr. deal with the 1914 strikes in which 75 were murdered. In the Ludlow Massacre alone, Rockefeller’s thugs used machine guns to kill 21 strikers and family members. After leaving the company, King guided labour relations for other huge US firms, earning the 2020 equivalent of $33,000 a week. Blind Faith in Crystal Balls and Hitler
King was a gullible and naive simpleton. This is clear not only from his trust in spiritualists, but from his faith in the Rockefellers, Mussolini, Hitler and other fascists. King’s use of ouija boards, crystal balls, palm readers and spiritualist mediums indicate his dubious mental capacities. Between 1920 and 1950, King hosted many seances and believed he was talking with his dead siblings, father, grandfather and mother. (One of King's spiritualist mediums, Etta Wriedt, came to his summer estate at Kingsmere, Quebec, to lead seances in the 1930s. She had been exposed as a fraud in 1920.2) King also suffered from the foolish delusion that he was conferring with the ghosts of Leonardo da Vinci and such deceased leaders as Wilfrid Laurier, Teddy Roosevelt, Lord Earl Grey, Benjamin Disraeli and William Gladstone. That King also communicated with three of his dead dogs, speaks volumes about the sanity of Canada’s longest serving prime minister. King’s well-meaning but simple-minded idiocy would have been inconsequential had it not been for the power he wielded as Canada’s prime minister for 22 years. King’s leadership before WWII exhibited his fawning adulation for Mussolini 3 and Hitler, whom he met and admired.King’s Man Date with der Führer
In June 1937, King was in Berlin to meet Hitler. He also met a slew of other Nazi war criminals, like Gestapo founder Hermann Göring and SS Gruppenführer Konstantin von Neurath, who were sentenced at Nuremberg.4 King had wonderful things to say about them all, but was most effusive about Hitler, who he lovingly revered. King was overjoyed to meet Hitler, calling it "the day for which I was born." His diary describes how he praised Hitler on "the constructive work of his regime, and said that I hoped that that work might continue. That nothing would be permitted to destroy that work." King said he also told the Führer that his great work "was bound to be followed in other countries to the great advantage of mankind." King congratulated Hitler for "what he was seeking to do for the greater good of those in humble walks of life" and said he "was strongly in accord with it, and thought it would work." Saying Hitler "would be remembered" for his good work, King told him "to let nothing destroy that work." King concluded his naive praise by saying "I wished him well in his efforts to help mankind." King was easily seduced by elitist trappings of power and dazzled by conspicuous displays of wealth. After being greeted by a "guard of honour" at Hindenburg Palace and then "conducted upstairs, preceded formally by attendants" "attired in court dress," King was awed by Hitler’s entourage of diplomats, and those in Nazi military uniforms and "Court dress." King was also impressed by Hitler’s love of mountains, because "he needs the quiet and nature to help him to think out the problems of his country. It seems to me that in this he was eminently wise." King took Hitler at face value and read much into his "smooth skin" and facial expressions. Saying the Nazi leader "smiled very pleasantly," he remarked on the "appealing and affectionate look in his eyes." Hitler’s "eyes impressed me most of all," cooed King. "There was a liquid quality about them which indicate keen perception and profound sympathy." Hitler, King said confidently, "is really one who truly loves his fellow men, and his country, and would make any sacrifice for their good." Hitler as King’s personal ‘guide’
King called Hitler a "very nice," "sweet," "calm, passive man" and said "one could see, how particularly humble folk would come to have a profound love for the man." King’s love for Hitler was clear. "As I talked to him," King said, "I could not but think of Joan of Arc. He is distinctly a mystic."5 In March 1938, King told his diary: "I believe ... the world will yet come to see a very great man-mystic in Hitler" and he "will rank some day with Joan of Arc among the deliverers of his people, and if he is only careful may yet be the deliverer of Europe." Besides seeing Hitler as the potential saviour of Europe, King also saw Hitler as his own personal "guide." Hitler, King said, was meant to guide me at this time to the purpose of my life—...to help men to know the secret of the path to peace, in industrial & international relationships.6 In 1937, King told Hitler that he "could do more than any other man living to help your own and other countries along the path of peace and progress." In another doting letter to Hitler (Feb. 1, 1939), King told the Führer that he wanted to express anew the hope that regardless of what others may wish, or say, or do, you will, above all else, hold firm to the resolve not to let anything imperil or destroy what you have already accomplished, particularly for those whose lives are lived in humble circumstances .... I hope that you will think not only of the good you can do for those of your own country, but that you will remember, as well, the good that you can do to the entire world.7
King ended this adoring 1939 letter by telling Hitler that his message was an "expression of the faith I have in the purpose you have at heart, and of the friendship with yourself which you have been so kind as to permit me to share."8 Hitler replied in July, and invited King to send an official delegation to Germany. King immediately wanted to "head the party." Hitler’s letter, says historian Allan Levine, "lead King to conclude ... that Hitler wanted to work through him to restore peace in the world."9 King’s diary reveals his delusion that he was at the centre of a divine plan. With the help of deceased "loved ones," King thought "God" was using him and his "mutual faith" with Hitler to build "peace on earth, good will to men." King wrote in his diary that: "Canada was being used as a screen to let friendly relations develop in a manner that would ‘save face’ as between Germany & Britain: ... it was a sincere gesture based on mutual faith in each other on the part of Hitler & myself, – ... I felt that ‘forces unseen’ – loved ones in the beyond, – were working out these plans, that there were no accidents, or chances in this but all part of a plan in which God was using man to effect his Will in answer to prayer, the Mediums being those in the beyond who were working for peace on earth, good will to men.... [I]t is a part of the plan for which we are chosen as instruments."10 Throughout the 1930s, King had faith that Hitler did not want war with Canada’s close allies in western Europe. King was so confident in this that he supported Hitler until the eve of war in August 1939. (See: " King supported Adolph Hitler throughout the 1930s. Why didn't he know better?")After WWII, King began a tsunami of
immigration that welcomed some 150,000 antiSoviet East Europeans. Countless Nazi
collaborators thus became new Canadians, including thousands of veterans of
Waffen SS divisions that had been created, armed, funded, trained and led by
Nazi Germany. 1. Mackenzie King, Report, "Immigration to Canada from the Orient and Immigration from India in Particular," 1908. http://bit.ly/KingRacist 2. Joseph

King said Neurath told him "that I would have loathed living in Berlin with the Jews.... He said there was no pleasure in going to a theatre ... filled with them. Many ... were very coarse and vulgar and assertive. They were getting control of all the business, the finance, and had really taken advantage of ... the people. It was necessary to get them out...." Unphased by this, King praised Neurath as "a man whose confidence I would continue to enjoy through the rest of my days…. Neurath whom I like exceedingly .... is, if there ever was one, a genuinely kind, good man." Ibid., June 30, 1937. 5. Ibid., June 29, 1937. 6. Ibid., March 27, 1938. 7.
