“… Pierre Trudeau declined to serve in World War II and after the war, “traveled to Josef Stalin’s Soviet Union to participate in regime-sponsored propaganda activities.” The full account of Trudeau’s duty for Stalin would make an interesting read, but in 1989 the fledgling Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) destroyed the dossier on Pierre Trudeau. So it makes sense that, as Frum recalls, that Trudeau “tried to reorient Canada away from the great democratic alliance,” a reference to NATO. The prime minister also regarded the United States as the major threat to peace and the USA as a threat to Canada’s national identity.”
