In 1945, he integrated the Intelligence Branch of the Canadian Army.[2] In 1952, he was recruited by a Soviet agent. In 1954, he studied economics at the Sorbonne.[2][4] In 1956, he began working for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, in Paris. He worked there for five years, during which he provided information to the Soviet Union.[2] In 1961, he studied at the London School of Economics, where he obtained a doctorate. In 1964, he became professor of economics at Laval University.[2] In 1977, his Soviet supervisor, known under the pseudonym Rudolf ("Rudy") Herman, was arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the United States. In 1978, Hermann became an informant of the FBI and revealed the identity of Soviet spies in America, including Hambleton. Information about Hambleton was also provided by defector Anatoliy Golitsyn.[2] On November 5, 1979 Hambleton's home was searched and spying material was found.[3] Hambleton was questioned multiple times over many years by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, but he was not arrested. In the early 1980s, Canadian media made the Hambleton affair public. Members of Parliament asked questions about it in the Canadian House of Commons, but the Canadian government invoked the necessity of secrecy. In June, 1982 Hambleton was arrested in the United Kingdom, during a transit there. He was tried in the United Kingdom, under the British Official Secrets Act.[2] He pleaded guilty and, on December 7, 1982 he was sentenced by Mr Justice Croom-Johnson to ten years in prison. He spent jail time in Gartree Prison,[3] in Market Harborough, Leicestershire. He was transferred to a prison in Canada in June, 1986. He was liberated under surveillance in March, 1989 and died in 1995.[2] Bibliography
