Show detail Hide detail

Quebec Battlefields Association : The National Battlefields Commission was set up by Act of Parliament (7-8 Edw. VII, Cap. 57) in March 1908. Its main responsibility was "to acquire and preserve the great historic battlefields at Quebec", and at the same time to arrange for the celebrations marking the Quebec Tercentenary. In addition, the "Dominion Central Committee Quebec Battlefields Association" was organized in Ottawa to raise funds for use by the National Battlefields Commission at the request of the Governor General, Earl Grey, through whose efforts the plan for the acquisition and preservation of the battlefields was adopted.
