It was widely circulated after the Dieppe raid and features in a couple of Canadian history text books that I used here in Ontario. The subtitle in French is interesting too, given that the rest of the text is in English.

I've not seen a repring of these, though that's possible, and it would make a nice addition to a WWII Canadian display/collection if the price isn't outrageous.

"Les Fusiliers de Mont-Royal" was, and remains, the official name of this French-Canadian regiment, based in Montreal. That said, the same series of posters were also produced in French.

Yes, thanks, I know the FMR. I just thought it rather jumped out of the poster. I assumed a French language version too, as it was produced by the Feds.
