Canada Grants Broad Amnesty For Desertion In War

The government announced a general amnesty for deserters who went absent on or before January 1 1946 and had not been apprehended by August 15 1946. Those pardoned are deemed to have served in Canada's armed forces and receive normal benefits. The policy excludes those who went overseas. The move follows pressure from French Canada and parallels postwar amnesty. The dishonorable discharge remains the sole penalty, stripping veterans benefits. The draft dodger hunt ends, with most delinquents either abroad, deceased, or using multiple names. The Labour Minister said only 1933 of 1 6834 unlocated registrants are real delinquents. Conservative MPs reportedly would not oppose the amnesty.
