This week Kate has a front page headline from the Echo newspaper in 1952 - it involves the story around a 48th wedding anniversary. Plus, with Rembrance Day just a few weeks away and thinking about the 2024 tv mini-series, Masters of the Air, Paul decided to do an episode on an equivalent squadron of Canadian bomber aircrew. It was the No 6. RCAF Group. There were also contributions on the home front like the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan and the Victory Aircraft plant in Malton, Ontario producing Lancaster bombers.

Momentous Anniversary plus WW2 Bomber Group

It's Thanksgiving Weekend in Canada! So This week, Kate ties a few topics together. Thanksgiving; fall tree-leaf colors; and the establishment of a train service to Haliburton County that had many uses - including fall leaf-color tourism. Plus, many don't realize how recently (1965) Canada adopted its instantly recognizable Maple Leaf Flag. It was a long divisive journey for many who didn't want to give up their traditional French and Bristish symbols. But most would now agree that the right decision was made in adopting the Maple Leaf Flag.

This week, Kate talks about the fall tree-leaf colour extravaganza which led her to the Dorset Fire Tower. The tower is a great lookout to take in the colours. The fire towers were iconic for defence from forest fires at one time. As technology developed they outlived their usefullness and most were removed, but a few - like the Dorset Tower - have been preserved and make a great viewing platform. Plus, Paul has the story of how Canada developed a homegrown comic book industry during WW2 with unique Canadian heroes and the impact of comics on the wartime piblic.
