'My honour has been shredded': 94-year-old Vancouver vet fights legion expulsion


Jackson says he's been expelled from the Vancouver branch of the Royal Canadian Legion, where he was once president, for alleged "theft or misappropriation of legion funds." (Eric Rankin/CBC)All complaints 'duly corroborated'Jackson's troubles began shortly after he stepped down as president of the legion's Shalom Branch 178 in December 2017. One month after taking charge, Redden filed a complaint with the Royal Canadian Legion accusing Jackson of "theft or misappropriation of legion funds." The Royal Canadian Legion Shalom Branch 178 in Vancouver is now under trusteeship, due to a split over Jackson's expulsion. "I think what's called for is an act of compassion, that Ralph be reinstated and let him live out his remaining years ... in the Royal Canadian Legion."
