Gostick Warns of Canada Becoming Dictated by 1984
Ron Gostick of the Canadian League of Rights addressed a crowd at the Hotel banquet room, arguing immigration and socialism threaten Canada and predicting a total government dictatorship by 1984 unless people engage, inform themselves, and influence government.
