Uncovers a systematic state-sponsored repression of communists and the Left in Canada, directed at civil servants, scientists, trade unionists, and political activists. Reconstructs the Gouzenko spy scandal, and examines the purges in the National Film Board and trade unions, attacks on peace activist James Endicott, and the trials of Canadian diplomat Herbert Norman. Outlines the creation of Canada's Cold War policy and the country's alignment with the US in the global Cold War. Includes b&w photos. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
