With Samuel Coffman and others in Ontario, Martin helped to create in 1940 the Conference of Historic Peace Churches, and he became its "most active member and spokesman", as chairman of the Military Problems Committee. His negotiations with the Canadian government helped lead to the beginnings of an Alternative Service program in summer 1941, and then as camps were established he traveled nationwide to organize and encourage the camps' conscientious objectors.
