It was extra painful for me having to self-isolate this week preventing me from attending with you at the PNE grounds. Though I must say the efforts of the Association and the Regimental wreath parties at key locations has still allowed for us to feel connected on this day. The remembrance at the 29th Battalion CEF Monument at the PNE was very well done and attended by over 75 BCR soldiers online. Please pass on my kudos to all those involved in putting this together. The Wait for me Daddy wreath laying party was befitting for such a special and dear monument to our Regiment. Finally, the readings of the Cpl Alexander and Wu at Christ Church Cathedral as part of a wreath laying party was streamed live and can be found on youtube at https://www.thecathedral.ca/livestreams/34. These efforts show the whole Regimental Family is able to adapt and carry on in face of the greatest challenges of this generation of soldiers.

  • The BC Militia Before the First World War
    Social Club or Martial Pursuit? The BC Militia before the First World War James A. Wood n the years between the completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway (cpr) and the outbreak of the First World War, British Columbia experienced nearly three decades of rapid economic Iand demographic growth. The spirit of the age was one of optimism and progress, punctuated by not infrequent periods of social turmoil. Amid the railway-driven rise of Vancouver and the doubling of the 1 provincial population in the first decade of the twentieth century, British Columbia experienced more frequent labour disturbances than 2 any other province in Canada, particularly in its coal mines and fisheries. Chief among the concerns of historians studying this period has been the attempt to assess the consolidation of a previously fragile settler society into the self-confident province whose growth proceeded at such a remarkable pace prior to the First World War. Others have explored British Columbia’s disproportionate contributions to that war, including the highest per capita rate of voluntary enlistment in Canada and the lowest rate of exemptions from conscription under the Military Service 3 Act, 1917. Many British Columbians entered the First World War with an intense sense of patriotism and a belief that military service was an obligation of citizenship. My task in this article is to explain the dramatic expansion of the BC militia prior to the First World War. I identify this as a process initiated by an influx of settlers from the British Isles and eastern Canada, for whom a volunteer militia was a visible symbol of a community’s coming of age, and carried forward after the Boer War 1 Jean Barman, The West beyond the West: A History of British Columbia, 3rd ed.
