I'll post this a couple days after Remembrance Day. Sir William Stephenson is in my opinion THE most famous unknown Canadian there ever was. Shame on our inept school system for not teaching anything about this great Canadian ( instead they bore the daylights out of students on other areas ). I have caricatured "history" teachers at various events and they had no clue who he was.... shameful!
William Stephenson moved to Britain and became friends with Sir Winston Churchill. When William Stephenson did business in Germany, he was the one who warned Churchill that something was going on.
Out of his own money, Sir William Stephenson help start the spy agencies that helped the war.....there is far too much to get into here on a caricature blog, but Google what he did. ( then you'll ask yourself why the school system has been sleeping).
On a lst note.... a spy that worked below Mr. Stephenson became a famous writer after the war. This man created a world known character modelled after Mr. Stephenson. His name was Ian Flemming...his character is James Bond......
Kelly Gannon, Sir William Stephenson, Ian Flemming, James Bond
