April 9th, 1917… The birth of a nation.
In the early morning gloom on a cold and snowy Easter morning, the Canadian Corps would set off on their most important mission yet. The battle for Vimy Ridge was just one of the various battles during the Battle of Arras which in turn was a part of the Nivelle Offensive but one could argue this single battle helped form the Canada we know today. Some argue it was the victory at Vimy which allowed Canada to emerge from Great Britain's shadow, the Canadian Corps would earn the reputation of the allied shock troops. This reputation was won at a cost though, the Canadian Corps would lose over 10,000 dead and wounded.
