Here's my ideas on what the National Populists of Canada would be like.
Admiral Sir Barry Edward Domvile (September 5, 1878-November 16, 1970), a British and Canadian Royal Navy Officer who was founder and leader of the United Empire League (UEL), the largest far-rightist and national populist political party in the Commonwealth of Canada. Domville served in the Royal Navy from 1892 to 1925, after which he fled to Canada during the British Revolution. He then served in the Canadian Royal Navy from 1925 until 1929. As a result of the British Revolution and his exile in Canada, Domville gained an intense hatred of Sydnicalism, Socialism, Communism and Bolshevism, and he also became an ardent anti-semite. In 1930, Domville and other like-minded British exiles founded the United Empire League in Toronto. The party was largely modeled on the Associazione Nazionalista Italiana founded by Italian writer Gabriele D'Annunzio in the Republic of Italy and called for "a unified Canadian nation under corpratist and nationalist rule" in an effort to "finally defeat Socialism and reclaim the British Isles for God, King and Country." The party advocated for the replacement of Parliament with a Grand Imperial Council and the office of Prime Minister with the totalitarian office of "Lord Protector", a style of corporatism in the vein of D'Annuzio's ideals, a strong military, the establishment of local militias and political youth organizations to militarily train Canadian citizens, a strong sense of Canadian and British nationalism and Anglo-Saxon racialism. The party was openly hostile towards Jews and Jewish-Canadians, as many in the party believed that Syndicalism was part of a "Judeo-Socialist" Conspiracy, Asian Canadians, as they were blamed for many social problems, and Native Canadians, with the party supporting the program of residential schools, as well as the ideologies of Sydnicalism, Socialism, Communism and Bolshevism, as well as immigrants from Socialist countries. The party was mostly on the fringes of Canadian politics, with the party gaining no seats in Parliament and winning over only a small part of the Canadian electorate and the British exile community. In 1935, Domvile retired from his leadership of the UEL but still continued to remain active in the party. As a result, he was forbidden by the Canadian government to rejoin the Canadian Royal Navy. During the Second American Civil War, Domville and the UEL petitioned for the Canada to directly intervene in the Second American Civil War and invade the Combined Syndicates of America. While Canada occupied New England, Alaska, Puerto Rico and the Panama Canal Zone, Canada did not intervene directly in the war, with New England, Alaska and the Panama Canal Zone being handed back to the United States of America after the end of the war, and with Puerto Rico gaining independence. Domville served as a reporter during the Spanish Civil War, writing in support of the Carlist Kingdom of Spain. Between 1937 and 1939, Domville made visits to numerous National Populist nations such as Russia, Japan and Argentina. During the Second Weltkrieg, he enthusiastically supported the war effort, this in spite of his open support for national populist regimes such as Savinkov's National Republican Russia, Iron Guard Romania, the Empire of Japan, Nationalist Argentina and Synarchist Mexico, among others. During the war, he also enthusiastically supported the Intregalist governments of Portugal and Brazil which were allied to Canada. After the Russian and Japanese declarations of war on Germany, Domville openly supported peaceful settlements between Germany and Russia and Germany and Japan, as he did not want to see the Entente involved in wars with Russia and Japan. After the war, Domvile returned to Great Britain and moved to London, where he re-established the United Empire League in London in 1948. Nevertheless, the party was still on the fringes of the politics of the British Reconstruction Authority and played no role in the De-Syndicalization of Britain. Domvile retired from the party in 1950 and lived the rest of his life in obscuirty, although he continued attend the meetings of numerous Far-Rightist British parties until his death. He also wrote and published a book entitled "The Case for National Populism" in 1953. He died in London on November 16, 1970 at the age of 92.
John Frederick Charles "Boney" Fuller, also known as J.F.C. Fuller (September 1, 1878-November 13, 1963), a British and Canadian Army officer, military historian, and armored warfare strategist who was also a supporter of the United Empire League (UEL). Fuller served in the British Army from 1899 until 1925, during both the Second Boer War and the First Weltkrieg, after which he fled to Canada during the British Revolution and then became an Officer in the Royal Canadian Army. While in Canada, Fuller wrote and publish numerous books on military strategy, the most famous of which was
The Foundations of the Science of War, published in 1927. As a result of the British Revolution and his exile in Canada, Fuller gained an intense hatred of Far-Leftist politics, and he also became impatient with what he considered the inability of the democratic government of Canada to adopt military reforms. As a result, Fuller began to secretly support the UEL, and even attended many party meetings, although he could not join the party outright do to his being a high-ranking member of the Royal Canadian Army. During the Second Weltkrieg, he enthusiastically supported the war effort and helped the Canadian General Staff develop new armored warfare strategies, this in spite of his sympathies towards the UEL which became something of an open secret amongst the Canadian Military High Command, the Canadian government and the British government-in-exile. After the Russian and Japanese declarations of war on Germany, Fuller, like Admiral Domville, supported, albeit secretly, peaceful settlements between Germany and Russia and Germany and Japan, as he did not want to see the Entente involved in wars with Russia and Japan. After the war, Fuller returned to England and continued to write books about military strategy and military history, among other subjects. Fuller retained his political convictions until the end of his life, and during the 1950s and 1960s, he supported numerous far-rightist and national populist groups in the United Kingdom. He also wrote in support of the Russian State and the United Kingdom, British Commonwealth, United States of America and the rest of the Entente developing closer relations with the Russian State in an effort to combat the German Empire and the Reichspakt, as well as the national populist regimes of Latin America. He also wrote that the Entente should aggressively undermine and even invade the remaining socialist regimes in Asia and Latin America. He died of natural causes in his home in Falmouth, Cornwall on November 13, 1963 at the age of 85.
Henry Herbert Stevens (December 8, 1878-July 15, 1973), the English-born Canadian politician and businessman who became leader of the United Empire League after the resignation of Barry Domvile in 1935. Born in Bristol, England, Stevens immigrated with his family to Canada at the age of nine. He was elected to the House of Commons in 1911 as a Conservative and held numerous cabinet positions during the 1920s and 1930s. In 1931, Stevens, after years of frustration with Canadian politics and having developed a strong hatred for the "Red Menace in Britain", as well as anti-semetic and anti-immigrant sentiments, officially joined the United Empire League and rapidly rose up in the party and became close with the ex-admiral Barry Domvile. After Domvile resigned as leader in 1935, he personally chose Stevens to be his successor. Stevens led the party during both the Second American Civil War and the Second Weltkrieg. During the Second Weltkrieg, Stevens openly supported an Alliance between the Entente and the Russian State and for Canada to go to war with Germany and the Reichspakt after the fall of the Third Internationale, a position which the Canadian government never took seriously. After the war, with the British monarchy restored in Britain, the UEL had no real reason to exist in Canada anymore, and thus the party was disbanded in 1948. Stevens spent the rest of his life living in obscurity and never took part in politics ever again. He died in Vancouver, British Columbia on July 14, 1975 at the age of 94.
Archibald Maule Ramsay (May 4, 1894-September 29, 1953), a Scottish and British Army Officer during the First Weltkrieg who became a British exile in Canada after the British Revolution of 1925. In 1926, he became a member of the British government-in-exile. In 1930, he joined the United Empire League and afterwards became notorious amongst the British exile community in Canada for his virulently anti-semetic views. After the restoration o the British monarchy in 1947, Ramsay helped to re-establish the United Empire League in Britain with Barry Domvile in 1948. After Domvile resigned from the party in 1950, Ramsay became leader of the party until his death from a heart-attack in 1953. He was succeeded as leader by fellow former-exile Arthur Kenneth Chesterton, who led the UEL until his death in 1968, after which the party disbanded.
John Horne Blackmore (March 27, 1890-June 14, 1972), a Canadian school teacher, principal and politician who was a founder of the right-wing populist Social Credit Party of Canada and later a member of the United Empire League led by Barry Domvile. In 1932, Blackmore became one of the founders of the Social Credit Party of Canada, which he helped to found alongside Sir William Aberhart, the future Premier of Alberta from 1935 until his death in 1943 and William Duncan Herridge, who became the first leader of the party. Not long before Aberhart became Premier of Alberta, Blackmore openly broke with Aberhart over numerous disagreements, such as Blackmore's thinly veiled yet openly anti-semetic views and support for corpratism within the party. In 1935, Blackmore left the Social Credit Party of Canada and then joined the United Empire League. Blackmore then became a close friend and confidant of Domvile and a staunch supporter of the UEL, with Blackmore becoming one the most influential Canadian members of the party outside of the British exile community of Canada. Not long after the Second Weltkrieg ended, the UEL in Canada disbanded in 1948, with its goal of Canada taking over Britain having now been achieved, with Blackmore founding a new party, the Canadian National Republican Party (CNRP), a far-rightist and national populist party modeled on Savinkov's People's Republican Party of Russia (NRPR), the national populist ideology of National Republicanism and the Russian State as a whole. Meanwhile, most of the British members of the UEL either quit politics or joined the new UEL re-established in Britain, while most of the Canadian members of the UEL joined the CNRP. The party supported the end of the monarchy in Canada, as in Blackmore's mind, it no longer served any purpose with the restoration of the monarchy in Great Britain, the amalgamation of the Head of State and Head of Government into one office known as "Grand Director", corpratism, Christian and Protestant fundamentalism, nativism, anti-semetism, restriction on immigration into Canada from non-European countries and the withdrawal of Canada from the Entente, as Blackmore saw the Entente as little more than a "British, French and American pet-project", with Blackmore fearing that the USA would overtake the Entente and then overtake Canada itself. The party also openly supported the Russian State of Boris Savinkov and other national populist regimes across the world. After Blackmore's death in 1972, John Ross Taylor, a veteran of the Entente invasion of Britain, one of the earliest members of the party and a close protege of Blackmore, became the new leader of CNRP. Taylor led the party until his own death in 1994, after which the party disbanded.
