EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster from 1919, depicting the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto, captures the spirit of unity, resilience, and progress that defined post-war Canada. The central figure is a proud and determined woman representing Canada, astride a majestic horse, holding aloft the British flag. Her presence symbolizes the country's unwavering loyalty to the British monarchy while also embodying the strength and vitality of the Canadian spirit. To her right, a Canadian soldier stands tall and proud, his uniform adorned with medals and ribbons, signifying his bravery and sacrifice during the Great War. The soldier's presence underscores the importance of the military in maintaining peace and security, both at home and abroad. Above the scene, an airplane soars through the sky, representing the country's technological advancements and its role as a pioneer in aviation. The backdrop of the exhibition grounds, filled with various war-related items, further emphasizes the significance of the war's impact on Canadian society and the importance of coming together to celebrate the nation's achievements. This powerful and poignant poster serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the Canadian people during a time of great change and rebuilding. It is a reminder of the sacrifices made during the war and the unity that emerged as a result, paving the way for a brighter future for Canada.
