Round-up of enemy aliens in Windsor, ON - en anglais seulement
Black and white photograph of police officers holding a jacket featuring "The Blue Shirts of Canada" badge, as well as other confiscated items. In February 1934 Montreal journalist Adrien Arcand formed the Parti National Social Chrétien (Canadian National Socialist Unity Party). Party members were known by some as "The Blue Shirts" and were often involved in altercations with immigrant or minority groups. Beginning at the end of May 1940 police began to arrest men who belonged to the National Unity Party. These men were eventually interned with Italian Canadian men accused of being fascists at internment camps throughout Canada. This photograph is a duplicate of LDICEA2011.0002.0014.
