The last three months of the First World War have come to be known as Canada’s Hundred Days. During this period, a series of impressive Canadian Corps victories solidified our soldiers’ reputation as elite shock troops on the Western Front. Canada’s Hundred Days culminated with the signing of the Armistice on November 11, 1918.
