April 9th, 1917—Canada stepped onto the world stage at Vimy Ridge.
For the first time, all four divisions of the Canadian Expeditionary Force advanced together in a single, coordinated assault—executed with precision, preparation, and discipline that set them apart on the Western Front.
In this episode of Memory and Valour, we go beyond the familiar story to explore how Vimy Ridge became more than a battlefield victory, it became a defining moment in Canada’s national identity.
From the meticulous planning and creeping barrage to the soldiers who carried the attack forward across the ridge, this is the story of how legend was forged on April 9th, 1917.
