Canada's Last Cavalry Charge Lives On | Calgary News

Canada’s military history roared back to life at CFB Edmonton as the Strathcona Mounted Troop, clad in WWI-era cavalry gear and riding proud horses, took center stage in a dazzling parade. This historic unit, part of Lord Strathcona’s Horse, honors its deep roots through generations of riders who commit years to mastering the art of horseback combat.
