Description - The Veterans Charter and Post-World War II Canada by Peter Neary

Rehabilitating Canada's soldiers to civilian life following World War II was a massive undertaking. The Veterans Charter, the programme devised by the federal government to do this, promised to provide "opportunity with security" and was one of the building blocks of the Canadian welfare state. This collection of essays by some of Canada's leading historians explores the Charter's origins, history and benefits as well as highlighting its role in the development of the Canadian welfare state and postwar society.
