Into the Hurricane: Attacking Socialism and the CCF

Born in the Prairies from the ravages of the Depression, the CCF was a new political party that offered an idealistic belief that Canada could rebuild itself to become better and more fair than ever before. By 1943, a national poll found that the CCF was Canada's most popular party. But its success bred fear among political opponents, and they campaigned to destroy the CCF. Into the Hurricane invites Canadians to consider how their political opinions are manipulated now by considering how they were manipulated then.
