Integration, chapter VII, § 1. Construction of a Haar measure

*Let G, G' be two locally compact groups, V (resp. V') an open neighborhood of the neutral element of G (resp. G'), and φ\varphi a local isomorphism of G' with G (GT, III, §1, No. 3, Def. 2) defined on V', such that φ(V′)=V\varphi(V') = V. Let α′\alpha' be a left Haar measure on G', and αV′\alpha'_V, its restriction to V′V'. Then φ(αV′′)\varphi(\alpha'_{V'}) is the restriction to VV of a unique left Haar measure α\alpha on GG.

Let V1V_1 be an open neighborhood of ee in GG such that V1V1−1⊂VV_1 V_1^{-1} \subset V. Let μ\mu be the restriction of φ(αV′′)\varphi(\alpha'_{V'}) to V1V_1. Let UU be an open subset of V1V_1 and let s∈Gs \in G be such that sU⊂V1sU \subset V_1. Then s∈V1V1−1⊂Vs \in V_1 V_1^{-1} \subset V, therefore s=φ(s′)s = \varphi(s') for some s′∈V′s' \in V'. Let x∈Ux \in U. Then x=φ(x′)x = \varphi(x') for some x′∈V′x' \in V', therefore sx=φ(s′)φ(x′)=φ(s′x′)sx = \varphi(s')\varphi(x') = \varphi(s'x') since sx∈sU⊂Vsx \in sU \subset V. Since the left translations in G′G' preserve α′\alpha', one sees that V1V_1 and μ\mu satisfy the conditions of Prop. 9. Let α\alpha be the left Haar measure on GG inducing μ\mu on V1V_1. For every t∈Vt \in V, there exists an open neighborhood WW of ee in V1V_1 such that tW⊂VtW \subset V. Then the restriction of φ(αV′′)\varphi(\alpha'_{V'}) to tWtW may be deduced by translation from the restriction of μ\mu to WW, hence is the restriction of α\alpha to tWtW. Therefore φ(αV′′)\varphi(\alpha'_{V'}) is the restriction of α\alpha to VV.

One says that α\alpha is deduced from α′\alpha' by means of the local isomorphism φ\varphi.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
