Canada At War Says Royal Bank Letter Defends Effort
The October Royal Bank of Canada monthly letter argues US readers misrepresent Canada’s war efforts. It cites 490,000 Canadians in service, 80,000 air force personnel, and a push to train pilots and crew in Britain, noting vast financial contributions and overseas bases. It defends Canada’s role and criticizes anti-Canadian bias while detailing naval, army, and air force growth and alliances.
