Once more, let me remind you what fascism is. I need not wear a brown shirt or a green shirt. Fascism begins the moment a ruling class, fearing the people may use their political democracy to gain economic democracy, begins to destroy political democracy in order to retain its power of exploitation and special privilege.

— Tommy Douglas (1904-1986) Premier of Saskatchewan (1944-1961), Leader of the New Democratic Party (1961-1971).
