au WE often flatter our- selves that govern- ment conspiracies common to the American legal and political systems do not apply in the True North. That may have been the case once. No longer. We have only to look at the never ending actions against Ernst Zundel, who of course is.a fully registered villain — a “neo-Nazi® and. admirer of Hitler. « He may be. But that doesn't impress me. There is - no lack of Stalin-lovers and neo-Bolsheviks in this coun- try, some of whom find gov- ernment employment, while others send bombs to peo- ple. But there is no big cam- paign against them. , ‘Zundel sends only word bombs.
