Our nation is widely known for its dedication to peace, and that commitment – as well as its legacy – has been handed down and cherished by each new generation of Canadians. It was Canadian Lester B. Pearson who, in his capacity as Canadian Secretary of State for External Affairs, organized the very first UN peacekeeping force in 1957. His efforts earned him a Nobel Peace Prize and helped cement Canada’s reputation as both a peacekeeping and peace-loving nation. That vision holds true today, as Canada continues to advocate for peace and freedom the world over.
