OTTAWA, ON – Members of the public and media were encouraged to attend The Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa (Duke of Edinburgh’s Own) Battle of Vimy Ridge Commemoration Parade today in downtown Ottawa, Ontario.
The parade left Cartier Square Drill Hall, 2 Queen Elizabeth Dr. and marched to the National War Memorial, where a brief ceremony took place at approximately.
The event marked the First World War battle in April 1917, one of the most historic battles in Canadian history, which involved significant numbers of Cameron Highlanders of Ottawa (Duke of Edinburgh’s Own), many of whom made the ultimate sacrifice.
12 officers and 550 other ranks of the Regiment were tasked to the first four waves of the attack and suffered severe casualties including four officers and 82 other ranks killed. An additional 223 were wounded. The Regiment was awarded one Victoria Cross, three Distinguished Conduct Medals, and 18 Military Medals for actions by its members. The Regiment proudly holds an official Battle Honour for these actions.
The Regiment serves as Ottawa’s official regiment, providing ceremonial guards of honour for visiting dignitaries, national ceremonies and other events.

OTTAWA, ON – The 16th edition of Canada Army Run, presented by BMO, brought together thousands of runners and supporters to the streets of Ottawa. Throughout the weekend, a series of family-friendly activities were held, with the festivities concluding through various races. This year’s event provided racers with the unique opportunity to run, roll, or walk alongside members of the military in the 5K, 10K, half marathon, Sergeant Major’s Challenge (5K + 10K), and Commander’s Challenge (5K + half marathon). Lieutenant-General Jocelyn Paul, Commander Canadian Army, had the honour of kicking off the races. Those unable to participate in person have been virtually taking part in the event since September 8 and will continue racing virtually until September 29.
In addition to being an opportunity for Canadians to thank Canadian Armed Forces members who serve at home and abroad, Canada Army Run directly supports serving members, Veterans and their families, with race proceeds and participants’ fundraising efforts going to Support Our Troops and Soldier On.
The theme chosen for Canada Army Run 2023, “Showcasing the Army of Today,” aimed to present the current reality of the Canadian Army while also offering participants and supporters a deeper understanding of the current opportunities available within the military and the contributions made by the military to Canada’s safety.
Canada Army Run is anything but your typical race; it is “No Ordinary Race.” Canada Army Run stands as a symbol of support for Canadian Armed Forces members who defend Canada and our interests, as well as their families.

The Canadian military’s version of the extreme endurance race is technically shorter. But it imposes gruelling conditions that most athletes would still find daunting.
For starters, you have to run in combat boots. You have to carry a 40 pound rucksack from start to finish. At one point in the race you also have to single-handedly pick up a canoe and run a 4 kilometre portage. Then you have to enter the water and paddle 8 kilometres.
