There is some irony in the fact that his collaboration with the conservative parties and thus his contribution to Canada's exisitng political institutions was probably of more significant influence in Canada's political history than his own movement was.
The Pierre Trudeau bit caught me completely by surprise. Not only because his son is probably the exact opposite of Arcand, but also because I sometimes don't realise how RECENT all of this was.
This validates my Trudeau hatred even more! :D But seriously, his son is not the exact opposite of Arcand except for maybe the live of privilege vs poverty.
How do you not know our history, have you been too busy playing victim your whole life?

Kaiserreich dev: there won't be any natpop path for canada because their strong democratic tradition. William arberhart and adrien arcand: are we a joke to you?
Most people don't realize how close Canada, especially Quebec was to becoming Fascist. Arcand wasn't a nobody. I have read some literature on his writings and speeches, and he made some interesting talking points for when it comes to religion from a Roman Catholic perspective as for someone who is a little more Protestant-minded like myself. There is a book called 'Serviam' that you can order online that gave some outlines of Arcand with his own words. If you can look past the more "out there" kind of takes, it's an interesting book. Although, the book supposedly removed a very large portion of his Christian apologetics, to which was supposedly the most central part of Arcand's points. I highly, HIGHLY recommend you to read Serviam, since it gives clarification as to why Arcand disliked specifically Jews, Capitalists, Liberals and Communists, since he viewed them as Materialists against Christian spiritualists. Like seriously, wikipedia doesn't ever give you all the details, and is at times arguably deceptive. Go and read the book yourself since it also covers things like his sickness he got in prison/jail and so on.
Bit of additional context to goglu lol, I'm from french Canada myself, and it has a sort of funny tone to it when you say it in Quebec french. It sounds very clownish. Definitely the kind of name we'd see on a satyrical paper in french Canada. In internet meme speak, I'd say it's equivalent to making a satyrical blog and calling it the wojak. :D
Ironically, Camilien Houde, former Montréal mayor whom Arcand was bashing in his newspaper at 7:51, was also sent to Petawawa for "re-education" during WWII. Two ideological enemies meeting in a concentration camp, how lovely. In his case though, he was imprisoned for public insurrection against the conscription. Yes, Canada would send people to a concentration camp just for that... Rumor has it he was also lobotomized there. Once he got out and the war was over, he was reelected in office as Montréal's mayor. What a story!
@@justwannabehappy6735 French Canadian really didn't care for Hitler, so it's no surprise that the Nazi lover wasn't a Québec nationalist - but they did have a huge love for Mussolini due to his association with catholicism.

I’ve never played hoi4 but I watch alot of hoi4 videos and I remember the first time I saw this guy pop up I was intrigued. I’m like “who is this guy and why does he look comically evil”
Good video. Just a note, though: The Emergencies Act isn't the War Measures act. It's quite different. It doesn't suspend the Charter. It doesn't allow imprisonment without charges. There's no way the Emergencies Act could be used to put someone in a labour camp for years as happened to Arcand. Not even for days.
As an American all I know about Quebec is they were the ones who came up with poutine and there more full of themselves then the FRENCH which is saying something.
You guys love thinking we are "pretentious" because we respond to the hate we receive. Also imagine being american and saying this. You guys think you own fhe world
So pierre trudeau criticized the emergency measures act being used to imprison fascist sympathizers during ww2 as anti democratic, and then both he and his son used the same act during their own time as PM? That is very funny, especially given how comparatively minor the reasons they used it are. Pierre did it in response to a terrorist attack by quebecois separatists and justin did it in response to a protest that killed exactly zero people.
When that act became politically useful, PET was quick to use it! « Just watch me! » Justin actually used the Emergencies Act, the successor to the War Measures act.
Pierre Trudeau was kinda notorious for "not getting" WW2 in his early days (he thought it was a war of British Imperialism) so it's not THAT surprising he'd relate to the guy who was against the war. So Trudeau missed both the fascism and the fact that if WW2 really was about British Imperialism, Arcand would have thought it was based.
It WAS largely about British imperialism, particularly stopping that upstart nation Germany from achieving parity with the British Empire like they did in WWI. Do you seriously believe the British attack upon Germany was over their treatment of Jews or the Poles? If that was the case, they would have declared war on the USSR too, but they were too scared of the Russian bear. They thought Germany was still weakened by the Treaty of Versailles and that France and Britain could trounce them in a few weeks. The French invasion was quickly repulsed and the British couldn't really mount much of an effective resistance.
@@titanomachy2217 lmao sure okay pal, the French and British were so eagre for war and certain of easy victory that they sat around and did practically nothing for 8 months after their Poland Ultimatum was ignored. Come on.
What are you talking about? His only personal added commentary on this wiki style video was him every so often doing low tier anti-fascist jabs at the guy.
As a québécois who had learned about Adrien Arcand in school, HE’S IN HOI4??? I’ve been reading the comments and just like I don’t know, have been very confused…
He wasn’t the even first or last Fascist to give it a go in Canada. A whole series of videos on pro imperialist and fascist organizations in Canada could take us from the founding right up to present day.
I love the split of "lol hoi4 Maple Syrup Fascist" and "fuck me, this guy EXISTED?" in the comments here. What a ride, wow. Subbed for more weird shit.
Lol i just stumbled upon this vid and channel and love it! Funnily enough, i recognized this guy Arcands face from his pic in Hearts of Iron 4 if you play as Fascist Canada, but i Had no idea who he was, thanks for the vid bud!
If you're looking for a Canadian for next year Tommy Douglas might be a good choice - not as extreme as Arcand obviously, but an interesting and influential Canadian political figure people outside Canada probably know nothing about.
From a Quebecker, please do not say that we`re Frenchmen. We`re not. Just like the ppl from the US are not Britishmen or Englishmen. And we`re as North American as any other community that has a long history on this continent. We are indeed french speaking, but it just seems so sad to me that we're seen as an ''exotic'' thing even in Canada even tough we're arguably the community that created the canadian identity.
Arcand was always politically isolated and always had a very limited popular base. Even though lots of Quebecois were very conservative, the majority of Quebecois didn't support fascism. From 1948 (Refus Global) to 1962, the society quickly shifted to the left, until the progressives took power with overwhelming support in the so-called Quiet Revolution. The Quebec independence movement is generally left-leaning, despite some incursions into identity politics.
Arcand did not paved the way to facism for Canadian : the KKK did wer already existing long befor that and were even visited by representative sof the German nazi party way before Arcand was active, And, if you want to think about political opression, do not forget that the Canadien Indian Act, created in 1876, have been used later as a model for the apartheid law in South Africa in 1948.
I really like your videos, fact i think i seen them all, in any case i think you should make a video about Bolivia, bolivian politics is full of "dark" and not very well covered figures, for example Bernardino Bilbao Rioja was a general within the army and a fervent nationalist, a funny thing is that in 1939 he was invited to Hitler's birthday, other interesting characters could be Hans Kundt, Ernst Röhm, Klaus barbie, Victor Paz or even Óscar Únzaga, all complex and under-treated characters, anyway i wish you all the best ;)
Video about Dmitry Shostakovich, the Russian composer that made absolute bangers while constantly being in life-threatening situations like the Great Purge, the Siege of Leningrad, Stalin era censorship and the KGB terror campaigns when? It would be interesting to see someone on this channel that was neither a politician nor a military person, and yet contributed a lot to history. He even was a friend of Tukhachevsky at one point (how tiny the world is, eh?)
This guy seems pretty cool. He got off his ass, put aside selfishly individualistic capitalistic goals, and stood up againast the early globalists. He was a somebody, instead of a nobody.
Even Oswald was meh. Small mustache man didn't want to get very involved with him because it would come off as extremely hostile towards the British government with whom he desperately wanted an alliance.
*Québécois man. Fun fact, our nation was a theocracy during those days, the Church controlled everything and would make sure to have you cancelled if you did anything they didn't like, they even had an index to ban books, including mant great romantic classics of 19th century France.
Not even gonna lie, Final Shape, Shadow of the Erdtree, and Minecraft 1.21 all releasing in June genuinely almost prevented this video from being finished on time. Managed to pull it off somehow though

How dare you want to survive. Bad, bad whitey.
Good for you
The fuck is wrong with you
13:10 The Jos Louis is a nice touch.
I love the split of "lol hoi4 Maple Syrup Fascist" and "fuck me, this guy EXISTED?" in the comments here. What a ride, wow. Subbed for more weird shit.
20:46 most based moment in Canadian legal history. Why that judge isn’t on Canadian currency is a genuine mystery
Lol i just stumbled upon this vid and channel and love it! Funnily enough, i recognized this guy Arcands face from his pic in Hearts of Iron 4 if you play as Fascist Canada, but i Had no idea who he was, thanks for the vid bud!
If you're looking for a Canadian for next year Tommy Douglas might be a good choice - not as extreme as Arcand obviously, but an interesting and influential Canadian political figure people outside Canada probably know nothing about.
Tommy Douglas was a great proponent for eugenics. He's got some interesting stuff in his history as well.
If you trust the science you are a fascist because trust the science is scientific governance and eugenics.
From a Quebecker, please do not say that we`re Frenchmen. We`re not. Just like the ppl from the US are not Britishmen or Englishmen. And we`re as North American as any other community that has a long history on this continent. We are indeed french speaking, but it just seems so sad to me that we're seen as an ''exotic'' thing even in Canada even tough we're arguably the community that created the canadian identity.
Clown people
A Trudeau defending someone from being arrested for there political views who wasnt a political ally is wild
Adrien Arcand was right!
Just FYI in the Canadian military, the word lieutenant is pronounced in the English manner, Left-tenant
Otherwise awesome job.
Arcand was always politically isolated and always had a very limited popular base. Even though lots of Quebecois were very conservative, the majority of Quebecois didn't support fascism.
From 1948 (Refus Global) to 1962, the society quickly shifted to the left, until the progressives took power with overwhelming support in the so-called Quiet Revolution. The Quebec independence movement is generally left-leaning, despite some incursions into identity politics.
Just like every nationalist socialist. They are left-leaning marxism obsessed with identity.
Fascism isn't conservative, it's syncretic, rejecting the left and the right.
Why does every fascist leader look like Walt Disney?
Antisemetism is visibly genetic.
@@justwannabehappy6735so is socialism but it isnt as fortunate looking
@@laindoer333 you look at Arcand and find him attractive? You need brain surgery
@@justwannabehappy6735 Semitism is visibly genetic.
@@againsttheleftandright4065 hey, you know your kind willneverwin?
He’s so crazy that the third most spoken language in Canadian parliament is Punjabi.
You ever become so racist that you actively endorse a straight-up goose-stepping swastika-wearing Nazi?
@@hedgeyes6411 He was right, though.
@@hedgeyes6411 Sir, we are the ones wearing swastikas.
Arcand did not paved the way to facism for Canadian : the KKK did wer already existing long befor that and were even visited by representative sof the German nazi party way before Arcand was active, And, if you want to think about political opression, do not forget that the Canadien Indian Act, created in 1876, have been used later as a model for the apartheid law in South Africa in 1948.
Very good video about political history about our country, you need more views for sure
I live inQuébec we learned about him crazy head
I didn't.
Kinda wild
J'ai j'amais entendu de lui avant aujourdui et je vis au québec depuis ma naissance
I really like your videos, fact i think i seen them all, in any case i think you should make a video about Bolivia, bolivian politics is full of "dark" and not very well covered figures, for example Bernardino Bilbao Rioja was a general within the army and a fervent nationalist, a funny thing is that in 1939 he was invited to Hitler's birthday, other interesting characters could be Hans Kundt, Ernst Röhm, Klaus barbie, Victor Paz or even Óscar Únzaga, all complex and under-treated characters, anyway i wish you all the best ;)
Video about Dmitry Shostakovich, the Russian composer that made absolute bangers while constantly being in life-threatening situations like the Great Purge, the Siege of Leningrad, Stalin era censorship and the KGB terror campaigns when? It would be interesting to see someone on this channel that was neither a politician nor a military person, and yet contributed a lot to history. He even was a friend of Tukhachevsky at one point (how tiny the world is, eh?)
Eye did knot-sea that comming 🤣 22:33
But I totally saw that coming.. apple don't fall far from the fackin tree ehh 😆
Very interesting..Australia had a similar movement too.
the long awaited Adrien Arcand video........ !!
I know, right? He was truly enigmatic ❤
This guy seems pretty cool. He got off his ass, put aside selfishly individualistic capitalistic goals, and stood up againast the early globalists. He was a somebody, instead of a nobody.
He was a puppet
I grew up in petawawa where he was held as a POW, it really is the middle of nowhere
You remind me of the great history teachers I was fortunate enough to have👍👍👍
So he was Oswald Mosleh.
Even Oswald was meh. Small mustache man didn't want to get very involved with him because it would come off as extremely hostile towards the British government with whom he desperately wanted an alliance.
Adrien's stare creeps me out
When someone says something so anglophobic you have to hit them with that angloid ghost stare
In Quebec, we learned about him. At least in the 90's, now everyone is so sensitive that i would not be surprised that they don't mention him at all.
Girlypop sorry to break it to u but I’m gen z and we learned about all this in school 😶
@@prettypinkblunt no, that's good news.
A French man interested in engineering that’s more religious than me and he’s a Clerical Fascist Teeaboo
*Québécois man. Fun fact, our nation was a theocracy during those days, the Church controlled everything and would make sure to have you cancelled if you did anything they didn't like, they even had an index to ban books, including mant great romantic classics of 19th century France.
I can't believe you missed the opportunity to mention one of Quebec's biggest jokes!
Mom can we have Oswald Mosley?
No we've got Oswald Mosley at home
*Oswald Mosley at Home*
