Historica Dominion Institute: Les Voltigeurs De Quebec

Curated by ACT

As part of a video series, this clip [1:00] profiles the militia band known as "Voltigeurs de Quebec" who played the new patriotic anthem 'O Canada' for the first time in public in 1880. Though accepted by French Canada, it took English Canada longer to accept this anthem as representative of all of Canada.
