Show detail Hide detail

Arcand, Adrien, 1899-1967 : Adrien Arcand, born in Montreal on October 3, 1899, worked as a reporter for several newspapers such as La Patrie and La Presse from 1918 to 1929. He later became Director of Le Miroir and Le Goglu and editor-in-chief of L'Illustration nouvelle, Combat national and L'Unité nationale. In 1934, he founded the Parti national-social-chrétien (Christian National Social Party), which eventually became the National Unity Party of Canada in 1938. Arcand was arrested in May 1940 for fascist activities and interned for the duration of the war, initially at the Fredericton camp in New Brunswick and then in Petawawa, Ontario. He was released on July 3, 1945 and moved to Lanoraie, Quebec. Arcand unsuccessfully ran in the 1949 federal election as a National Unity candidate for the riding of Richelieu-Verchères and 1952, for Berthier-Maskinongé-Lanaudière. He continued to lead the party until his death on August 1, 1967.
