A manifesto from the 13 Colonies was posted in Montreal and Quebec City urging citizens into an alliance with the Americans. From the television series "Canada: A People's History."

Description: In January 1942 the Battle of the Atlantic shifted to the Canadian and American seaboards where Admiral Dönitz suspected shipping would be poorly protected. The Canadian navy, however, now with over two years experience in organizing convoys, immediately began to sail shipping in defended groups. Often the only protection available was a single armed yacht. It worked. The German U-boats soon shifted their main offensive to the US coast and the Caribbean where ships were still sailing alone.
