Today, we're going back in time all the way to 2016 to revisit a comedy gem by the beloved host of CBC Radio's The Debaters, Steve Patterson.

Today, we’re going to switch things up a little bit and present our pieces in the new Chapters-Indigo True Crime Collection.

In this comprehensive illustrated account of Camp B, Andrew Theobald examines the daily lives and tribulations of those imprisoned behind the barbed wire. "Dangerous Enemy Sympathizers" also scrutinizes the troubling context that led to the internment of both refugees and Canadian citizens, the debates over the ethics of internment inside and outside the camp, and the role of the camps in shaping government policy towards immigration and the post-war powers of the Canadian state.
