Canada's Century

Prime Minister Laurier was correct in stating that Canada would fill the 1900s, As Canadians took very substantial actions towards creating a more equal, diverse, and independent country. Women were able to change perspectives and penetrate the workforce, and immigration became a prominent force that has immensely shaped the Canadian population. Additionally, Canada became an independent entity that now holds great pride in its nationalism, and power throughout the world.

I love military history as well as studying Canada's past relationship with the United States, as both continue to impact our lives today.
