Legion aims to bolster memberships in Canada
The Royal Canadian Legion considers expanding branch eligibility to include firefighters, peace officers, and Coast Guard members after one to three years of service. Aimed at reversing aging membership, the plan will be debated at the Dominion Command convention in June 1998 as Alberta and Northwest Territories members attend a four day 40th biennial convention in Medicine Hat. The group plans more activities and possibly computers and Internet access to retain members.
