A newly declassified file on Douglas shows the Mounties surreptitiously attended the witty orator's speeches, dissected his published articles and, during one Parliament Hill demonstration, eavesdropped on a private conversation.Wow. Those poor bastards. Having to listen to that gaseous left-wing nutjobs speeches...I hope they received bonus pay for their trouble.
These nutsos never change, really:
As premier, he ushered in public auto insurance, guaranteed hospital care and a provincial bill of rights.
The RCMP file reflects Douglas's interest in anti-war causes, including opposition to nuclear weapons and criticism of United Nations policy on Korea.
Sort of a pity that they couldn't have pulled a Dallas on that worthless commie.
