- The Canadian pipe mine, also known as the McNaughton tube, was a type of landmine deployed in Britain during the invasion crisis of 1940–1941. It comprised a horizontally bored pipe packed with explosives, and once in place this could be used to instantly create an anti-tank obstacle or to ruin a road or runway thereby denying its use by an enemy.

Elle comprenait un forage dirigé horizontalement, ou tube, bourré d'explosifs. Une fois en place, elle pouvait être utilisée pour ruiner instantanément une route ou une piste d'aéroport, la soustrayant à l'utilisation ennemie. (fr)

- McNaughton visited the Premier of Ontario, Mitchell Hepburn, who had served with the Royal Air Force during the First World War. Although he now suffered some disability he wished to serve in Europe in the new conflict. "He decided that he was sufficiently well to go in the capacity of A.D.C. to the G.O.C. 1st Canadian Division and as such he proposed himself to me—not only proposed himself but did everything in the world to get me to take him. But I finally convinced him that it was his duty to stay in Canada and put ginger into the mobilization. I did tell him that I wanted his Minister of Public Works in charge of a special section of tunnellers and so we finally compromised; I swapped the Premier of Ontario as an A.D.C. for the Minister of Public Works [Colin Campbell] as the nucleus of a very useful engineering organization".

- If the maximum depth is 8 feet, the lower end can't be at 15 feet. Maybe someone meant the minimum depth is 8 feet, or the high end is 8 feet under ground and the lower end is 15 feet, but that's not what this paragraph says. (en)
