Today marks the 108th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge, Canada’s part of the 1917 Anglo-French spring offensive. Please take a moment to reflect on the sacrifices of the Canadian service personnel, especially those who never came home.

108 years ago today, at 5:30 a.m., all four divisions of the Canadian Corps fought together for the first time at the Battle of Vimy Ridge. On a cold Easter morning, they advanced through sleet and snow. #VimyDay #VimyRidge

Dutch side SC Cambuur presented their new shirt, honouring the Royal Canadian Dragoons, who liberated Leeuwarden 80 years ago . 🇨🇦❤️🇳🇱

This is, in my opinion, the most significant endorsement for Pierre Poilievre and the Conservative Party yet. Do your own research into the signatories and their respective companies. These are Canadian Titans who have, for decades, invested in our communities and help build our economy.

This deeply stupid move is going to make those of us in the media now question every single thing the Liberal War Room generates. Really, really stupid. #cdnpoli cbc.ca/news/politics/…

I'm walking the dog park without a dog..... Thinking about a message for those who haven't voted. Here's one of them. Share this everywhere.

Henry Dundas was a committed abolitionist who used his understanding of how Parliament works to achieve passage of the first ever motion calling for an end to the slave trade, 3 April 1792). Stop the renaming game, start with the history. #ContextMatters #CanadianHistory #Dundas

A cloudy morning. The smell of saltwater. Waves crashing on the hull of the landing boats. Soldiers quiet – carrying the weight of Europe on their shoulders. We remember the brave heroes who risked everything when they landed on Juno Beach 81 years ago.

I used this quotation every year since 2004 when I taught Canadian history at Bishop Strahan. Prime Minister Paul Martin at Juno Beach.

81 years ago today, paratroopers of Easy Company (plus a few men from the 4th Infantry Division) pose for a picture in the town square of Sainte-Marie-Du-Mont the day after surviving their first combat jump into Normandy 🪂

Cover drop. Coming this fall from Sutherland House

Thank you and goodbye to our friends from the Canadian Army who temporarily took over the duty of The King’s Life Guard at Horse Guards from Household Cavalry this month with inimitable style and aplomb. You were awesome and we will miss you!

75 years ago today, Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King died. He is Canada's longest-serving PM (21 years) and many argue, our greatest. It is strange to think about how King gets so little recognition in our high school history classrooms and the public at large.
