In this episode of The Rum Ration, Rejoy and Colin tackle one of Canada’s most complex military figures—General Sir Arthur Currie. Hailed as the finest general of the First World War, Currie rose from a humble Ontario schoolteacher to command the Canadian Corps, mastering the brutal learning curve of modern warfare. Yet behind his strategic brilliance lay controversy: a hidden financial scandal, bitter political enemies, and soldiers who branded him a “butcher.”From Vimy Ridge to the Last Hundred Days, Currie proved that meticulous planning could save lives—even if it cost him his reputation. The episode explores his triumphs, his moral courage to defy orders, and his postwar struggle for vindication at McGill and in court. Featuring Rum Ration’s signature wit, fictional sponsors, and reflection, this episode dives deep into the paradox of a man who won Canada’s war—and lost its affection.📬 Have Questions or Suggestions?
