CANADA HOLDS US IN HER HAND
From far and wide O
Canada,
God bless our beloved land.
We ever stand on guard for thee,
Canada holds us in her hand.
For freedom’s home with true patriot love,
Thou dost in us command,
The Maple Leaf forever we hail!
Canada holds us in her hand.

CANADIAN WOMEN'S ARMY CORPS-standard
CANADIAN WOMEN'S ARMY CORPS-widescreen
The
Canadian Women's Army Corps was a trailblazing non-combatant branch of
the Canadian Army established on August 13, 1941. Over 21,000 women
enlisted throughout World War II, serving both in Canada and overseas.
The CWAC was a major milestone for female participation in the Canadian
military. Their contributions proved that women could capably perform a
wide array of technical and logistical roles in wartime, paving the way
for the fully integrated Canadian Armed Forces known today. Hail to the
CWACs!

CHILD OF THE TRUE NORTH
When
the Great War began, the Dominion of Canada had a population of fewer
than 8 million people. Only 50 years into its Confederation, over
660,000 Canadians came forward to serve in the war with 425,000 serving
overseas. From its earliest years as a country, Canada has shown a
willingness to serve far from its shores to support its allies and to
stand for freedom. This is the child of the true north, strong and free.

CLAIMING THE WILDERNESS
With
the search for the Northwest Passage, the New World soon becomes a
destination for permanent European colonies, in Newfoundland and along
the St. Lawrence from 1540 to 1670. Samuel de Champlain begins his
legendary journeys, and the beginnings of New France are established.
Later, the English would settle all across Canada and establish towns
and cities from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific coast. On July 1,
1867, the Dominion of Canada was formed. Happy Canada Day!

CONFEDERATION DAYS
In days of yore, from

Wolfe the dauntless hero

And planted firm

And joined in love

The thistle, shamrock,
rose entwined,
The Maple Leaf Forever.

HAPPY CANADA DAY FROM THE
WILD
Wild
places sometimes demand silence. Not the eerie emptiness of no-sound
silence, but living, breathing wilderness silence. A silence defined by
the absence of the human voice. In the midst of this silence of the
North can be heard the myriad voices of Canada's wildlife proclaiming
its territory and asserting its indomitable spirit. Happy Canada Day
from the wild!

PASSING THE TORCH
For
the old guard, time passes too quickly, and one day the veterans know
that it’s time to pass the torch to the young. With them lies the
future. The old school, however, has wisdom and valuable experience
that they can pass on if the young wish to listen. In the long history
of our men and women in red, the early and current protectors of our
great country, they’ve listened and learned. Happy Canada Day to them
and to all.

PROTECTOR OF THE TRUE
NORTH
In
1873 the government of Canada created a Department of the Interior and
a national police force called the North-West Mounted Police. The
purpose was to establish law and order in the great North-West before
the settlers came, ensuring an atmosphere of collective responsibility
for justice. They adopted a French motto, "Maintiens le droit" “Defend
the Law” (literal – maintain the right). These brave men were and
continue to be the protectors of the true North, strong and free.
