CAMP X was set up in 1941 as a top secret faciity for training spies for the Allied Forces, including the French Underground and eventually, the United States Secret Services. Founded by the British Secret Service, with the help of a Canadian businessman, William Stephenson, William Stephenson's code name was "Intrepid" and his story is told in the book "A Man Named Intrepid".
Nestled on the shores of Lake Ontario, just 30 minutes east of Toronto, history played out in secrecy that only came to light several years ago.
One of the men who was trained at that facility was a man by the name of Ian Fleming, who would later create the world's most famous spy, James Bond. Apparently when Ian Fleming was training at CAMP X he stayed with family in Toronto on Avenue Road - right across the street from the Saint James Bond Church. (The church was named from the merger of St. James Prebyterian and the Bond Street Congregational Churches)
According to historical accounts, Ian Fleming was not quite the killer that Agent 007 was. Apparently, when it came to having to "kill" an "enemy agent", he was unable to complete his mission and kill someone in cold blood.

Vey interesting, I have heard of this story and I believe there is a book or two about it.
