And early in the war, Canada’s military would only take people from European backgrounds. Fortunately Kam Len “Douglas” Sam, a Chinese-Canadian airman, stuck it out until he was allowed to enlist, and served his country bravely in the air and as a spy behind enemy lines. Although Newfoundland wasn’t part of Canada yet, it was definitely part of the war — we imagine what it might have been like when German submarines torpedoed the harbour on Bell Island in 1942.
