"This is an important book, a reminder that when Canada is under assault, good men and women step up to serve. That is what happened in World War Two. That is what is happening now." Rt. Honourable Jean Chretien, former Prime Minister of Canada

"The Dollar A Year Men is about the largely untold story as to how Canada recruited business leaders who made enormous contributions toward helping Canada mobilize and industrialize during the SecondWorld War. Some of the nation's richest tycoons and business executives dedicated years to converting Canada's under-utilized industries into factories that produced war materials, weapons, and equipment. They and others volunteered willingly and became a top-notch team that turned Canada into a military-industrial powerhouse that helped defeat Hitler. This book is a must-read and contains untold stories of courage, dedication and sacrifice from Canada's proud past." Diane Francis, journalist andauthor

"Allan Levine inspires pride in Canada's past and hope for a brighter future. He tells how a nation with a population of only 11.2 million and a small manufacturing base at the beginning of WWII was transformed by patriotism, talent and sheer determination into a military and industrial powerhouse. The Dollar a Year Men couldn't be more timely as we chart a new course for Canada." Hon. Perrin Beatty, P.C., O.C.
