The War Measures Act (marshal law) .... Octobre Cisis 1970 .... my 'then brother-law, French canadian' was taken in for questioning ... all because of certain politikal affiliations .... It was basically a mass roundup of many such dissenters .... not just an act of keeping the peace .... this period in time in Canada's history was something not be proud of from which ever way you look at it.
