Nazi Eyes on Canada By Alan King
Alan King
Starring: Orson Welles, Vincent Price, Helen Hayes, and Judith Evelyn. From the West, from the East, the war draws near to Canadian shores. Canada is saying goodbye to her sons who are off to serve in all parts of the world. Taxes, the restrictions on unessential services, and the re-allocation of manpower bring the war into the life of every Canadian. But Canadians are still living in relative luxury, and they still hold fast to the greatest of blessings - freedom.
"Nazi Eyes on Canada" shows how all this would have changed if the Nazi lust for power on the North American continent had been fulfilled. A Nazi Spy, alias Colin Ross, traveled throughout Canada in the 1930s reporting back to his Nazi superiors on strategic Canadian locations that would enable a North American invasion. Based on Ross' reports, this production brings the Nazi vision for North American domination to life.
W.L. Mackenzie King, then Prime Minister of Canada, delivered a national address on the CBC a week before the first of these radio plays was aired.
