Raised in 1900 and at personal expense by the Great Canadian entrepreneur and patriot Donald Alexander Smith, 1st Baron Strathcona and Mount Royal, the Regiment saw immediate and distinguished service in the South African (Boer) War. As the 20th century unfolded, the Stratchonas were a core unit of Canada’s army in the First and Second World Wars, the Korean War, West Germany (Cold War), UN Peacekeeping operations in Egypt, Cyprus, Cambodia and the Balkans, and NATO operations in Bosnia and Kosovo. More recently, the Regiment provided armoured reconniassance and main battle tank squardrons to Canada’s Task Force in the Afghanistan War and has led the NATO Baltic Battle Group in Latvia.
Throughout 125 years of storied history, the Strathconas have proudly carried the spirit of their Founder and the Canadian West, as emblazoned on the Regiment’s Badge – Lord Strathcona’s family coat of arms, and voiced by the Regimental Motto – originally of the famous North West company – PERSEVERANCE .
