Charles Gordon also wrote a series of articles on the unemployment crisis and the social order for the Winnipeg journal Western Home Monthly. His concern with rising unemployment and sympathy for the unemployed was also made clear by his support of "Trekkers" in 1936. Gordon wrote a pamphlet publicizing the march to eastern Canada by these men from the western relief camps, written in collaboration with the Citizen's Defense Committee.
