Canada and The Korean War
July 27, 2013 marks the 60th anniversary of the armistice that ended the Korean War. Between 1950 and 1953, more than 30,000 Canadians fought with the United Nations Command to defend South Korea against attacks from North Korean and Chinese forces. Five hundred and sixteen Canadians died during the Korean War, and many more were injured.

Your original work for this year’s competition should explore a theme related to Canada and the Korean War. You might examine a historical person, event, or organization, or you might offer a more general or more personal overview. You could explore famous Canadian battles, examine Canada’s reasons for supporting the United Nations effort, or interview a veteran of the war. You may wish to look at the war’s legacy in Canada, efforts to commemorate the war’s casualties and veterans, or the connections between your family, your school, or your community and the war. Why is the Korean War sometimes called “The Forgotten War”? How have Canadians sought to preserve peace in Korea since the end of the war?
