94-year-old WW II vet expelled from legion wins reinstatement

One of Canada's last surviving Second World War veterans says he's won his "third world war" - a bitter 32-month fight to restore his dignity and clear his name before he dies.
Ralph Jackson, 94, was expelled from the Royal Canadian Legion by the BC/Yukon Command in March 2018 for alleged "theft or misappropriation of legion funds" at his Vancouver branch.
Now, the national headquarters of the legion has overturned the B.C. ruling, finding Jackson was never given a chance to face his accusers and defend himself.

After Grandfather fought from Normandy into Holland Being wounded And still fighting Untill wounded yet again Freeing the towns people And returning to Canada After a long hospital stay Much to his surprize Collecting his war pay and papers from the local Legion Had to wait outside the hall Because being Metis with a family history in Canada hundreds of years on one side And thosands of years on the other Could not go in Because they served Beer...Legions have been stained for along time. Veterans Should have all free heath care. Free tranist Train/cab/bus And tax free food shopping under $800 a month at 65 And every Nov 11th a card from the government with a thank you And a free drink coupon at any bar or beer store .. Home care Give the worker a tax break on helping vets This isnt the future they fought for
